If this is an issue, it should now be fairly easy, at least in the context of a recent gcc, to replace it with the latter. The licensing was intended not to be a problem. The GPLv2 pieces are either higher-level pieces not be needed at all by gcc, or are only tests for the library. The atomics library itself is covered by the MIT-style license. But, as I said, I think it's no longer critical. Hans
