SimCoupe itself uses portions of other non-GLP sources (e.g. Allegro),
which is somewhat illegal. So I think SimCoupe cannot be GPL.
Can it be GPL when it contains some sources, the original authors are NOT
listed in the credits/copyright sections, and they haven't explicitly
allowed
Aley's sound code is not a library that forms a part of the program, as
it's possible to run the program without the DLL.

Well ... unfortunately that is precisely the problem we have here. Aley's
code is not in a DLL. Presumably It is possible to recompile a version of
