It spells this out loud and clear: | When the Program is made available in source code form: | a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and | b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the | Program. which means that I can *not* distribute snippets of the IBM source under the GPL, hence can *not* use said snippets in a GPLed project. Regardless of whether GPL is transitive or not. -- Henning Makholm
