Hyman stop being utter idiot. The process of static linking DOESN'T
CREATE AN ORIGINAL WORK OF AUTHORSHIP (same as with dynamic linking). A
linked executable is uncopyrightable aggregation (same as dynamically
linked program in address space/memory) of linked works ("mere
aggregation" in GNU speak) and it doesn't fall under Apache "Derivative
Works".

(GNG is a derecursive recursive derecursion which pwns GNU since it can
be infinitely looped as GNGNGNGNG...NGNGNG... and can be said backwards
too, whereas GNU cannot.)
