I gather that the compiler part of the free system is the same as the
non-free one (both are GPL, as they must be because they are both based
on GCC).  The non-free system comes with some additional tools that are
non-GPL, so you get to decide whether you want to pay for those.  The
same thing with support: a heck of a lot of companies rely on
unsupported builds of GCC, and GNAT is about the same.  As for closed
source: the GPL applies to the compiler itself (so any modified version
of the compiler must also be GPL), not the code that it generates.
