No, it is the CHANGING of the interpretation of the license to fit the
current agenda (real or perceived ... I am not sure which) that chaps my
hips.  The license is the same.  Qmail SPECIFICLY does not allow
distribution of binaries. Pine does not allow binary distribution of
derivative works.  I am saying that the changes Debian makes do not
consititute a derivative work, they are simply configuration items.

Debian/GNU Linux ... the maintainable operating system.
