readable “work that uses the Library”, as object code and/or source code, so that
the user can modify the Library and then relent to produce a modified executable
containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the
contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile
the application to use the modified definitions.) b) Use a suitable shared library
mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses
at run time a

copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, rather than
copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a
modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified
version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. c)
Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the
same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
than the cost of performing this distribution. d) If distribution of the work is made
by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy
the above specified materials from the same place. e) Verify that the user has
already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user
a copy. For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library”
must include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable
from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be 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.

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other
proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such
a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an
executable that you distribute.

7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-
side in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by this
License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate
distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is
otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things: a) Accompany
the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library,
uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed under the
terms of the Sections above. b) Give prominent notice with the combined library
of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to
find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except
as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically
terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received
