Yep. Even Daniel's short list of Windows "quirks" was enough to
convince me of that :-)
I think we just need to be careful about what modules we use,
otherwise we become gplv3+ by default right?
There is a configuration option for bootstrap that tells it to restrict
modules to those satisfying a particular license. eg, in bootstrap.conf
you can add
gnulib_tool_option_extras="--gpl=2"
and it'll now refuse to pull in gplv3 modules. We use this in libvirt to
restrict it even further, to only lgplv2+ modules

Daniel
