GPL sec. 1 does *not* involve licensing of non GPL code.

Creating a collective work incorporating a copyrighted element
is in no way making a verbatim copy of that element.

"If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate
works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to
those sections when you distribute them as separate works."

The elements incorporated into the collective work formed by
creating a statically linked executable file are not distributed
as separate works.
