List: ruby-talk #75541
I don't believe the GPL is specific about the library sharing the same
memory space as the linking application; for example, the library may be
linked through a TCP/IP pipe where the application is running on a different
machine than the library is.  If the application links intimately with the
GPL library, the application must also be GPL unless the library is
distributed as a normal part of a development environment or operating
system.
