Uh. And what does "retaining a working executable" have to do with
users ability to modify, improve and distribute the GPL parts? Make
your own executable employing the modified GPL parts.

He can change the GLPK call interface and write his own program to
get better performance. Or just pay Gottfried for modified version of
*Gottfried's* program (adaptation under 17 USC 117 aside for a
moment) to use the modified GLPK call interface. Stop trying to
expand the scope of rights under the GPL to infect works under
independent copyright (in this case, Gottfried's program). This is
copyright misuse.
