They don't need to make the statement:  any stack compiled with the
community edition is a derivative work and subject to the license of
the code it is including (gpl, livecode).  gcc has a specific
exclusion releasing its generated code from the gpl; without this, all
works compiled by it, by including its code, would be infected by its
license.
