Now this I don't think is true. If I write an application and place it
under the GPL, the compiler I use to compile the sources should not
affect the license of my source code. If I write plain C code that
compiles with any C compiler then it would somehow magically have to
comply with all the different compiler licenses out there, regardless
if anyone ever compiles it.
