The distribution is implied in the comment. If there isn't distribution, 
the license taint isn't important, why bring it up? In any case, having 
a GPL license for a library diminishes its usefulness to proprietary 
software houses.

It depends on what you do. Sure, if you are a pure SAAS house, GPL is 
perfectly fine, but if one day you want to license that as an 
installable server, you need to re-develop that GPL piece, and make sure 
your developers never looked at the code. It's not something to take 
lightly.
