I'm currently writing a freeware game with djgpp v.2.0.
However I don't want that my program is under GNU licence, since
I don't want do share it's sources. How can I be sure the executable
doesn't use any libraries that are under that licence?

Curretly I compile program like this:

gcc -c -o myprog.o myprog.cpp -O2 -Wall -m386 -fpack-struct -save-temps
gcc -c -o myprog2.o myprog2.cpp -O2 -Wall -m386 -fpack-struct -save-temps  
gcc -o myprog.cof myprog2.o myprog.o -lemu -save-temps
stubify myprog

When I removed file libgcc.a from lib directory it tries to find it and
libgcc.a is one of the files under GNU licence. I've tried to use
-nodefaultlibs but gcc doesn't seem to know that option.

I don't use any C++ iostream funktions, but my own code 
uses a lot of classes, new, delete and other C++ spesific 
things so I can't compile them as C and converting would 
be a nighmare.
