It seems to me that you both say the opposite. I understand the
exemple above of distributing averything in C form includes C code
from any egg (under any license, not just BSD).

So what is it, generated C code cannot be redistributed without the
scheme source if the scheme source is GPL or can it be, just like code
emitted by Bison or Silex ?
