Would it be correct that these licensing conflict only come into
play if the combination is further distributed.  It was my understanding
that nothing in the GPL prevents you from mixing GPL code and
proprietary code for your own private use;  you just can't
further distribute the combination since the GPL would require
you to distribute source to the other pieces and you don't 
have that to do so..?  Or maybe I'm all confused and should
be slapped :)
