Sonny, uncle Hasler has spoken!

True, since the Free Software Foundation (license drafter) 
persistently claims for decades to the entire world that the GPL is a 
license and not a contract, then it is really hard to argue that a 
third party is a "third party beneficiary" to a contract that doesn't 
exist. LOL.
