actually, at least by my understanding, GPL in this case is particularly interesting legally. while the 'do linked GPL libs make the linked programs
derivative works' question is still unknown, this is an instance of GPL'ed
libs being linked in only explicitly by the user.... so when one uses the
GPLed code, does it make that instance of chicken GPLed?

 That's true, I should have said that the different licenses might

I am not overly worried about GPL violations in distributions

clause to add GPLed eggs.

Not only that, but if you want to deliver an application in C form,
you have to license the application as a whole under the GPL iff
it incorporates any GPLed egg.
