Cygnus are providing the code under two license: GPL, or commercial.
So "commercial" in this case means anything that is not GPL'ed.

You can of course make your software GPL'ed and still include a note
that says "If you like send $x to y".  However, you must provide source;
you can't produce only binaries.
