You're mistaken, Hyman. 17 USC 109.
That seems like the start of a cute trick. If I make a copy from a
legitimate source, then it is a legitimate copy that I can give away. I
cannot copy it, but I can give it away. So if I make a million copies
directly from the legitimate source, I have a million legitimate copies that
I can dispose of any way that I please, either give them away or sell them
if I can. The GPL does not restrict that.
It seems to me that I have no obligation to give away everything as a whole,
either. I can give away the executable code and not give away the copy of
the source or the copy of the GPL license that came with the copy I made.
