He means 

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html

"For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code
for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition
files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of
the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code
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. "

The question then is:

Which "executable work"?

Note that it says neither "COMPLETE executable work" nor "LARGER
executable work"!

LOL!!!

alexander.
