Wasn't the point of the GNU suggested wording to be a model of how to
allow linking to Qt2 on Windows?  On Unix there is no problem with
either GPL or QPL as I understand it.  So we would still need to
mention Qt2.  What happens to a port to MFC? Aqua? or some other
toolkit which is proprietory and closed source?  We need to keep
revising our license clarification.  Why not just stick with a general
statement that says we can link to whatever closed system libraries we
need to -- native Windows port will need native graphics and IO and
whatever else libs after all.

Allan. (ARRae)  Don't you just love these license debates?
