I think I have seen this discussion somewhere else, and the problem
(if I remember correctly) with the VXD and GPL/LGPL was that in order to
create the VXD you need Microsoft's development system headers and/or
libraries to build/link the module, and these are not distributed with
the OS and are definitely not "Free" software in any sense of the word.
I believe this is what creates the problem with the VXD.
