No you didn't, but you may neverthess have created a derived work.  There
are two different legal arguments you can make when two pieces of software
are tightly coupled in that way: one argues that it's a derived work and
the other that it's not.

Copyright law when it comes to software is not simple and certainly
not obvious.  If you want to use a piece of Free Software in a commercial
product, you need to consult an attorney.  It's really that simple.
