Craig,

I'm pretty sure that "link" means _link_.  If you go to the FSF site, in their 
explanation of the GPL (at least at one time), they gave the example of the 
GPL'ed Bash application being used to call proprietary programs (which is much 
like NAnt calling external programs).  Since the Bash code was not modified and 
it's only "link" to the other programs is a system exec() call, the GPL 
requirements did NOT cross from Bash to the external programs.
