Choice #2
If the copy you are looking at says different, Hawhill posted that he will re-license it to non-gpl if it is now.
Also, the Freescale license prohibits the **source** from being linked to viral licenses.
In this case (bin2c or objcopy attachment) k3flasher is just the transport mechanistic for the Freescale binary.
The Freescale binary remains a "blob" - just like other firmware blobs.
I.E: Rather than shipping it "loose" as an executable object (which Freescale prohibits).
