Beside the licensing issues, why do you care so much patched version of 
your software to be distributed with big WARNINGS, a different name and 
tutti quanti ?
AFAIK, each Linux distribution have a huge bag of patches it applies on 
the Linux kernel and the reputation of the kernel devels is not 
compromised. And it's quite the same about gcc and many pieces of free 
softwares.
Aren't you afraid that your reputation is _far_ more about the issues to 
ditribute your software than about the quality of your software ?
