Whether your approach is pragmatic can not be decided at this point
as we have not seen any support from GPL-adverse financial software/consulting
firms. Furthermore, frankly I don't expect anything, probably ever. My KDE
eperiences have been versy sobering.  Companies will ONLY take and _never_
give as far a code is concerned.

As to the GPL code question. I really don't care anymore. I am tired of
anything that involved licensing questions. Very tired. The license
we have currently is fine with me and if we can't use R or orctave stuff,
then so be it.

ps what's that history.h file? Did you even try to compile that using g++
2.95-3? Don't know whether I can quickly fix that one ...
