Object code produced by gcc is not covered by the GPL, but you
should be ashamed of yourself if you want to restrict distribution
of any object code, and even more ashamed if you wish not to
include source with your distribution.  It's anti-social, and
contrary to the stated goals of the FSF.  Parsers generated by
Bison are covered by copyleft, however, so you should remember to
use yacc if your application needs it.
