*If* the program is derived from the plugin, which it isn't, since the program existed first. Besides the GPL says this: These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. BTW, what's up with gnu.org? -- Måns Rullgård [EMAIL PROTECTED]
