What I don't like is other people just copying the *actual binary*
without giving any credit or acknoledgement that *they* don't want to
bother to compile it *themselves*. As long as they mention where they
got it, I'm

creating a derivative work, because the function code itself will be
compiled into the Program and inextricably combined with your code.
When the two are separated by a run-time

Yes - but the previous versions licensed under the GPL remain GPLd and
development can continue on the code.
Can you explain why this is the case?
In reality, the code would most likely *fork,* leaving one strand open
and the other proprietary.

I believe OSD section 7 may cover that:
