We wouldn't be doing that. We'd be distributing programs that don't
work at all, unless 'notifying the user of incompatibility with Free
Software' is regarded as a feature. There wouldn't be any traces of any
actual dependency on non-Free Software there.
In one sense, that is true.
In another sense, all the REST of the code in that driver is code that
will only work with a certain non-free program (plus a small change in
the line that calls the loader).
Both interpretations seem valid. So the question is, what serves the
cause better? To include that program, or to delete it?
I think (or thought) that deleting it is better. But I am not
absolutely certain.
