The last time I did a basic FreeBSD install, it included Gnu

Anything else besides GCC?
I can't think of anything else off the top of my head, but it's
been a couple years since I've had a FreeBSD system.
This is pretty easy to find out: they keep all the GNU
project stuff separated out in their CVS tree and build
environment (for both legal and technical efficiency, I
suspect).
I know there is an ongoing effort to replace any GPL'd
userland tools with equivalent BSD licensed ones, but, of
course, if the best tool for the job is under the GPL
they're going to keep using it. Of the stuff that's still
being included, the most items notable GNU projects are:
binutils/gcc/gdb
rcs
texinfo
groff
grep
They also use several standard, non-GNU GPL'd tools, like
cvs, man, and patch.
