Interesting enough, he mentioned to me that he had had great problems to do

which seems most odd indeed.
I suspect that this is because the older version of RS he's using to get the 
PPC / OS9 compatibility dates back to the 5.0 release days and things on Linux 
were very fresh and depended on a very archaic (now) version of GTK.

The later versions of RS are much more complete and completely on par with the 
other platforms.

You are quite right; I just had this from the HyperNext chap:

"we are legally safe because we are still using RB 555 from a long time ago and when we started they had no such constraints.We still have the original license agreements"
