The fact that Walter has released DMDScript as GPL does not mean that 
all the stuff you connect to it has to be GPL. It merely means that you 
have to distribute the whole as GPL so long as they're being compiled 
together. You can rip out a portion which is not GPL and use it under 
whatever license it's under - e.g. if you licensed your Gtk binding 
under LGPL, and somebody ported it to a different ECMAScript engine, 
they could then use it as LGPL.
