I may have misunderstood something:
- does emacs forbids writing non-free software?
- does gdb forbids debugging non-free software?
- does ddd forbids debugging non-free software?
- does gcc forbids compiling non-free software?
- does make forbids building non-free software?
- does cons forbids building non-free software?
- does autoconf forbids building non-free software?
- does bash forbids running non-free software?
- does gnash forbids running non-free software?
- does guile forbids running non-free software?
- does dejagnu forbids testing non-free software?
- does grub forbids booting non-free software?
- does linux forbids running non-free software?
- does hurd forbids running non-free software?
Why the hell was the LGPL invented for, if not to support proprietary
software developers wanting to use free software libraries?
Have your read why the LALR(1) C parser output of Bison is not free
software, but public domain instead?

Do you have documents backing your assertion about GCC being special
about it's relationship with proprietary software?
Do you have documents stating that ``GNU explicitely does *not* support
the "freedom" to distribute non-free software''?
Curiously,
Nowhere man
