Hi,
I got a question regarding GPL while migrating our
code to gcc4.1.0. In order to make sure that our
proprietary code is not exposed to GPL restrictions by
using gcc, I run my scripts to check every source file
and included header files that are built into gcc
essential libraries such as

But before we can roll out this compiler, we need to

But before we can roll out this compiler, we need to have some written
statement from FSF that says it's legally safe to link with these
libraries even with those problematic files. Who should I contact for
such a statement?
Your attorney. The FSF would have absolutely no reason
If I compile source code using GCC, that does not require me to open-source the
resulting program under the GPL, correct?

Compiling a program with GCC does not by itself cause the resulting
