The GMGPL or, since GCC 4.4, GPL3 with Runtime Library Exception, allows people to distribute *binaries* including (aka linked with) your libraries under whatever license they wish. They cannot, however, redistribute the *sources* of your library under whatever license they wish. If they choose to redistribute the sources, they must do so under your original license terms and with your copyright. -- Ludovic Brenta.
