I agree absolutely.  The reason I asked is not that I want to sell some
gcc'd code, but rather that I have written a compiler which I cam releasing
under the GPL, and I was wondering if other people's object code produced
by my compiler was covered under the GPL.  I just thought that phrasing
the question in terms of gcc would save some explaining and net bandwidth.
Oh well.
