- No; I think you misunderstand the license. Software compiled with gcc
- is not automatically copylefted, and we don't incorporate any
- copylefted code into Executor. The djgpp team avoids incorporating
- such code into their libraries.

- ARDI contributes bug fixes and improvements to djgpp on a regular
- basis.

- Sorry about that. That bug has been fixed "in house", and will go
- away in 1.99m (due out fairly soon).
