Apache is not GPL'ed either. The PHP license is pretty much a clone of Apache's license. Apache also optionally links against gdbm through the mod_auth stuff. I don't see a difference. The Zend part is QPL'ed, so whatever the Debian guys do to distribute KDE with the QPL'ed qt library, they can do for PHP with the QPL'ed Zend library. -Rasmus
