Re: Runtime versions (GPL vs Modified GPL)

[anon@anon.org (anon)]

All programs that are compiled with GNU components are force to GPL 2 
or 3.

Explained in a number of web sites, such as Adacore.  You must use GNAT 
that come with the GMGPL (GNAT modified GPL). These are limited to 
Ada 95 versions compiled and packaged back in the mid 1990s or use the 
pay version (GNAT PRO).  Most archived versions have been updated to 
GPL 2 and GPL 3. Which mean that GNAT Ada 95 and at the movement all 
Ada 2005 compilers (GNAT only) are under GPL 2 or 3, which mean your 
code must be under GPL.

To know for sure, read the 'license.txt' that comes with GNAT package.
