Pretty much in the same way most would, if they'd tried GNU/Linux back
then.  Both GNU and Linux evolved together since then.  What is the
point you're trying to make?  That people who got involved early in
the development of the kernel Linux chose GNU because GNU sucked as
much as you imply?  Because they were tough and resisted the impulse
to run away screaming? :-)
