Octave's license isn't going to change, so I don't think we have a
choice to someday "tolerate" a non-free, GPL-incompatible license.
I'm not interested in linking Octave with non-free software, or
encouraging people to do so.  What we need is to have software that
does the job of working with the GPU that is distributed under terms
that are compatible with the GPL.
