As of 1.10, you can ship MY version of go32 (the one that comes with
djgpp) without any restrictions.  If you change it, you must then
comply with the GPL.  Same applies to emu387, graphics drivers, etc.

Since I do this as a hobby and not as part of a job that may
disappear, you can probably count on me working on it for a while.
However, you have the ultimate insurance - you have the sources.  In
an emergency, you can hire someone to fix problems for you.
