Now, let me clarify a few things about my original statement that seem
to have been forgotten. Using a module affects the licensing of the
interpreter. You can't distribute an interpreter that combines GPL and
non-GPL-compatible modules.

Also, please remember that the GPL doesn't magically exclude only
closed-source works. For me, personally, the pain point is the
inability to mix GPLv3 and GPLv2 software.
