Ludovic gave you a good link, and to go further, if I guess which
thread you are talking about, then just read it very carefuly, to
learn more about what the article pointed by Ludovic means when it
says “ [...] depending on where you obtain it from. ”. This “
depending on where you obtain it from ” is very important. In any
case, if you have any doubt, read carefuly the licence header which
you must find in *each files* of the compiler distribution you are
using to compile your final application. To be honest, saying “
depending on where you obtain it from ” also implies that there may be
some differences, like divergences in updates, and so on (a differente
source, may means a different thing)

What are you working on actually ? (if I'm not too much intrusive)
