I consider linking in C + subroutines in this manner to be the moral equivalent of defining + subroutines in the Perl language itself. You may sell such an + object file as proprietary provided that you provide or offer to + provide the Perl source, as specified by the GNU General Public + License. (This is merely an alternate way of specifying input to + the program.) You may also sell a binary produced by the dumping + of a running Perl script that belongs to you, provided that you + provide or offer to provide the Perl source as specified by the + GPL. (The fact that a Perl interpreter and your code are in the + same binary file is, in this case, a form of mere aggregation.) +
