There are clearly different arguments to be made here, but since GCC has
deprecated the LGPL and instead allowed people who want to build
proprietary software using GCC (and, therefore, the necessary included
runtimes) by applying the GCC Runtime Library Exception[1] to their
libraries[2], I follow their example [3].
