Well, djgpp is written with gcc :-) There are a couple of commercial
programs written with gcc, like Executor/DOS from ARDI (Macintosh
emulator) and eXtreme's X server software.  There are also many PD
programs, like DEU and Python, that use djgpp.

If you use libgpl.a, you must provide sources for libgpl.a and OBJECTS
for your program.  For libgpp.a and libiostream.a, the copyright
allows you to use them without restriction as long as your program is
compiled with gcc.  There are no restrictions on libc.a or libm.a.
