Which is why I've always said API and not ABI and advocate the ability 
to distribute mex-like code as source that can be linked against Octave 
by the user, but never stated that binaries of mex-files or oct-files 
can be distributed under anything else but the GPL. The dynamic linking 
argument in support of the GPL to force distribute of source under the 
GPL doesn't apply here as we are talking about a mex API that is not 
Octave specific.
