GPL do not prevent using the code for commercial reasons, does it? IIRC, it just ensure that any derivative work is open-sourced as well. Which I would like to.

It's really not about the glory, but more about ensuring that work done on the compiler can come back upstream, so that every one can benefit from it.

Usually I don't mind it, but in this case, if someone can do this better than me, I'd love to be able to learn from it.
