Hi Adam,
My understanding is that libgcc.a is LGPL, and thus does not GPL "infect" (obligate) your code.
The parts that are NOT LGPL in GCC, and are GPL (and thus obligate your code likewise) are...
These libraries:
+ iberty library. (e..g, libiberty.a; GNU utility common routines, like the ARM project for Amiga)
+ bfd library. (e.g., libbfd.a; compiler, debugger support)
+ opcodes library. (e.g., libopcodes.a; compiler, debugger, disassembler support)
These header files:
+ ansidecl.h (K&R to C89 transition helper)
+ bfd.h (associated with libbfd.a)
+ bfdlink.h (associated with libbfd.a)
+ symcat.h (macro magic for identifier concatenation)
+ dis-asm.h (associated with libopcodes.a)
DISCLAIMER: I'm not a lawyer. Take my assessment at your own risk.
