So I should make those files not GPL, but GPL w/exception > lest eCos would have to be GPL'd too? I think this is a misunderstanding. I didn't want to suggest to switch to the eCos license (although that's not a problem either). What I want to make sure is that the ELF files consist of 100% free software, i.e. that no binary-only, closed-source stuff is linked into those binaries; that would be a problem. If the eCos libs (and other objects/code, if any) you linked into the ELF files are all GPL'd or under the eCos license (which is GPL+exception), then everything is fine.
