When you compile with gcc a c or c++ program, your binary hasn't to be under 
the GPL license  (fortunately !) . But the problem with GNU Prolog is that :
in the binary wich is created by GNU Prolog there is a part of the code 
produced wich is a part of GNU Prolog ...

So i think your application becomes GPL.
