I suspect that other clauses would apply. For example, assuming that the GCC 4.4 run-time is part of the OS (which is likely the case you described as far as I understand), then the GPLv2 OS exception clause would apply. But of course, I'm not a lawyer, so the best advice is to check with FSF directly, since this list is not the right media for it. Arno
