This is the most illogical and perverse argument I think I have *ever* seen on this mailing list, and that's saying something. If people find legitimate uses for it while it's available, that's a proof that taking it away is wrong. Symbols are supposed to be marked GPL if and only if it's not possible to use them in non-GPL'd works. So, yeah, let's not risk letting people prove your position is wrong before you have a chance to enforce it.
