I don't think nvcc fit the"normally distributed with the operating system".
I'm not sure if the role of nvcc has been fully understood.
nvcc is some kind of 'pre-compiler' which is not distributed or linked to.
Distributing GPL code that was compiled with MSVC doesn't require the
MSVC compiler to be open source as well.
Yes, but there are alternative OSS compilers that implement the same
programming language (at least to a very large extent). This doesn't
seem to be the case here. So even if this scenario is not explicitly
excluded in the GPL, if doesn't feel very free to me, too.
