Comment Compiler clause missing from FOSS licenses (Score 1) 782

To me one of the general short comings of FOSS licenses is the question of the compiler. To me something is only truely FOSS if along with the binary I get I also have access to a compiler that is available under a FOSS license and the compiler flags. Anything else may be readable in source, but simply not really enabling me to reproduce the binary in the original or in a slightly altered way.
