by the way, the reason you don't have to make sure the recipient gets 
gcc is because of the exception in the LGPL that I skipped over. 
Namely, that if the necessary tools are normally distributed as part of 
the OS, you don't need to bother distributing them yourself. That's 
clearly not the case in the environment the previous person was talking 
about though.
