Yep. You may redistribute the libraries, unless you're using the
'Evaluation License,' in which case you can't do much of anything
besides evaluate the product. Here's the legalese:

    Redistributables: include header, library, and dynamically 
    linkable library files. You may copy and distribute (except under
    an Evaluation License) the Redistributables, or any portions
    thereof, as part of the product you developed using the Developer
    Tools.

    ...

    The Materials defined as Redistributables are the following files: 

    libcprts.so.1
    libcprts.so
    libcxa.so.1
    libcxa.so
    libguide.so
    libunwind.so.1
    libunwind.so.2
    libunwind.so
