As far as I understand it, "linking" as defined by the GPL is when you incorporate code into the running process space. If you keep them seperated into different processes (e.g. one program spawns/execs another) that is not considered linking. So dynamic linking = yes, spawning a seperate process and communicating via IPC = no. But then again <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#YANALATEYHSMBSI>.
