accurate summary of the licensing terms for GUILE, but in no way

The overall intent of the GUILE license is... (put summary of intent
here -- allowing linking with *all* apps, etc...)
The overall intent of the GUILE license is for the source to be
covered under the GNU Public License, along with whatever additional
exceptions are necessary so that just linking an application against
Guile doesn't (by itself) make that application subject to the
restrictions of the GPL.
Unless otherwise noted, all files in Guile are covered under the terms
of the GNU General Public License, which should be included with the
More specifically, most files in Guile are covered under the terms of
the GNU General Public License, which should be included with the
distribution in the file COPYING, and is duplicated in the section
titled "GNU General Public License" below. You may also request a

In addition, unless otherwise noted all files are also subject to a
special exception to the GNU General Public License. This execption
is included in the section titled "Guile GPL Exception" below, and
will henceforth be referred to as the Guile GPL Exception.
The following list indicates the files in guile that are covered under
a license other than a combination of the GNU General Public License
and the Guile GPL Exception:
* Files covered solely under the GNU Public License -- files not
covered by the Guile GPL Exception:
* all files in the guile-readline directory.
* all files in the test-suite directory.
In addition, all of the files that actually become a part of the final
Guile executables are subject to a special exception to the GNU
General Public License. This exception is included in the section
titled "Guile GPL Exception" below, and will henceforth be referred to
as the Guile GPL Exception.
The rest of the files may or may not be covered by the Guile GPL
Exception, and are usually just covered by the GNU General Public
License alone. Examples include many files used only while building
Guile, example files, etc.
Also some of the files in the guile-readline directory are covered
only under the GNU Public License, but Guile has been designed to load
these files in a way that will not violate the GNU Public License.
