not subject you to GPL conditions, only distributing a version you have
modified would do that. The GPL is easy to understand and adhere to, while the
"Open" license for Solaris requires a lawyer, and has a lot more dangerous
clauses..
I find "a version you have modified" very hard to dissect. Would it include,
for examples:
-A packin config file, you modified to fit your needs?
-structures and techniques from GPL code? (at what point does 'concept'
blend into 'actual code?')
-examples from docs?
I find the line between 'use' and 'appropriation' and 'modification' very
faint.
