It seems to me that the same would be true of using the MPW libraries.  As
Kent pointed out, Apple puts a general statement on its CD-ROMs, but there
are exceptions such as Snippets. 

I think that if you ship a MacApp program you need to get a separate
license, which I suspect is not included in the ETO subscription.  So
perhaps that would satisfy any legal concerns one my have.

Anyone who has concerns should contact the Apple Software Licensing
Department.
