If you have a copy of the GNU Bulletin from June 1990, there is an
article titled "Possible New Terms for GNU Libraries."

In a nutshell, we are considering a new scheme:  require the
distributor of the proprietary executable to make the source to OUR
library available along with the OBJECT files for the rest of the
application.  This way users can still benefit from updates, fixes and
improvements to the GNU library without being dependent on the
distributor. 

"Spend YOUR time finding and fixing our bugs and then relinquish ALL
control of your fixes to US."

So you want to spend x hours fixing bugs and then make 100 other
people do the same thing?  What a completely selfish attitude.   
Do you think we are GETTING RICH doing this?   We want to help the
maximum number of people get high quality software for free.
