You're permitted to use MFC on other platforms, but you must have a copy of VC++ for each platform. You are permitted to use and redistribute the code, so long as you make "significant" improvement to it. I'm betting you won't be able to get away with distributing the sources, no matter how much you improve it, though there is nothing that actually says you can't (most likely, they will redefine "significant", as necessary, to prevent you from doing so).
