Is there a position paper anywhere on the use of GPL tool (ex: gcc) and
proprietary code. For instance, can I use gcc to compile a proprietary c++
file and have the output be proprietary or is the output GPL'ed

I changed it in the SSLeay makefile. I keep assuming that my problem is
with SSLeay because i compiled OpenSSH just fine. It uses the openssl
libraries to link against too doesn't it? It installed just fine.. No
linker errors at all. I've made a couple of changes and it still bombs
out in the same place but with a different error.
ld: Invalid loader fixup in text space needed in output file for symbol
"$005C0032" in input file "/use/local/ssl/lib/libssl.a(ssl_lib.o)"
I'm not sure what the difference is beteen that and the position
independant error I was getting earlier. Oh well.. I'm gonna go take a
weekend off and maybe I'll have a fresh perspective when I get back.
