I just realized that we've been forgetting the FLOSS exception that LL
added to the viewer license. So yes, a 3rd party viewer can have
quicktime support, as well as FMOD. Duh. Big duh.

The original question of the discussion wasn't quite referring to
making a pure-GPL-compatible viewer. So basically this boils down to
the same old spiel...can distribute the viewer, can not package it
with llKDU, the vivox components, fonts. Am I correct in that analysis
of it all?
