That would be a good example where someone could send me their
modified interpreter and I would be happy to post it on
the RDS web site for all to use.

You can do *anything* with the PD source. It's Public Domain.
You have the same rights to it as I do. 
You can modify it in any way.
You can translate it.
You can bind it.
You can sell it.
You can close source it.
You can open source it.
You can try to make a competitive product from it.
You don't even have to acknowledge RDS as the author 
(though that would be a bit rude).
