Well, that would be me. But I kind of have a lot of other stuff to
do. I'll reprhrase it as "I dont want to take this on myself".

This I did not know. Interesting. I assumed Xcode was still using
gcc.

By that argument nobody should run a business on top of BSD or Linux.
Yes, if you are going to be pedantic I dont "depend" on them - If BSD
went away I would switch to Solaris, and if free Objective-C compilers
went away then I shall switch to OS X.

But in practice, currently the software runs on top of BSD using GCC/ObjC
and it would be an imense pain if either of those things vanished
tomorrow. But they are not likely to in my judgement. Indeed isn't the
point of the GPL that the current version can't ever be actually taken
away ? Or did I misunderstand that ?
