The problem is that we are collecting experience with using VS and by doing

There's also a practical problem with distribution here, since given
Visual Studio's non-free nature, our users have to go and chase
additional libraries on their own, since we are not free to give them
those libraries ourselves.
A similar problem occurs with Xcode and free distribution on Mac OS X.
Except that Xcode *doesn't install libraries*.
It installs headers, right? What's in the "command line tools for
Xcode" that we can't distribute freely?

I've been meaning look at the copyright for the headers used by Xcode, but keep forgetting. Has anyone taken a peek?Ben
A google from my phone found this.
