   While I admire and respect and yes, use GNU software it isn't as useful to me
   as it could be because I won't borrow any of the code in it for my own purposes
   as it restricts my freedoms with how I choose to distribute the result.

NetBSD code will not cause the following dire personality changes to occur:

1. not bathing
2. robbing the blind
3. being unkind to your mother (unless you already are)
4. wearing colors that clash
5. eating your dessert first

regarding the GNU tools, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
