As the Cygwin.dll is licensed under GPL, any "Program" that links to it must be released under GPL as well. My question is, what if the "Program" also links to proprietary .dlls that are authored by someone else. That source can not be published (I don't even have access to it). Furthermore these

I read the following on http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/faq/faq_1.html#SEC4 In particular, if you intend to port a proprietary (non-GPL'd) application using Cygwin, you will need the proprietary-use license for the Cygwin library. This is available for purchase; please visit http://www.redhat.com
