>I only use mit, mpl, and apache licenced libraries. Gpl can fuck off I'm selling my work.

Is it your contention that you referencing a GPL'd library function makes your program a non-seperable derivative work of the GPL'd library?

Is that your contention?
Are you a fucking retard?
Oh, you're a programmer!

I bet you believe that editing someone else's code and then making a "diff" of your changes makes that a seperable non-derivative work too!

Stupid fucking piece of shit.
Here's a hint:
You can "link" GPL'd code as you wish from anywhere under US jurisprudence.
You cannot distribute diffs of changes you made to the GPL'd library/kernel/etc itself with ANY additional terms.

But you fucking programmers believe
1) DURRR LINKING A LIBRARY MAKES MY CODE A NON SEPERABLE DERIVATIVE OF THE LIBRARY!!!
and
2) DURRRRR IF I USE THE DIFF PROGRAM AFTER EDITING SOMEONE ELSES SOURCECODE THEN MY CHANGES, ANOTATIONS, AND MODIFICATIONS SUDDENLY ARE NOT CHANGES ANNOTATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS AND ARE NOT SUBJECT TO THEIR COPYRIGHT!!!!

DUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

>Right to Prepare Derivative WorksOnly the owner of copyright in a work has the right to pre-pare, or to authorize someone else to create, an adaptation of that work.

Grsecurity IS violating the Linux Kernel and GCC copyrighs. You are not violating the copyright on the gpl library.
