All I have to say about that is that I wish the GPL were not so
restrictive that it prohibits many potential best-of-breed
combinations of components.  But that was it's intent and it isn't
likely to ever change.   I'm just glad that people like Larry Wall
understood that early-on and used dual-licensing to make at least some
software usable in more situations.  .
