I forgot:

However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not 
include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or 
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of 
the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component 
itself accompanies the executable.

See http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLIncompatibleLibs

BTW, you cannot use the mentioned loophole. The way I see the only 
person who could do that is Kasper.
