If I am to use Code::Blocks binary release that is shipped along with MinGW, only as an IDE+build tool (using the Code::Blocks' enveloped GNU GCC compiler), without using any of the Code::Blocks source code,  am I allowed to develop commercial programs ?

Code::Blocks packages MinGW GCC;  Code::Blocks has no legal say of the rights using it in commercial programs; I suggest reading the Compiler License and the License of any library you use.

That's basically what I said.

However, as C::B is just an IDE that can drive a lot of different compilers you should indeed also read the license of the compiler you're using. But normally this should be just fine.

Thank you guys for your prompt and clarifying answers.

I use this oportunity of being on this forum to send my thanks to the Code::Blocks Team for realizing this great IDE. You've done a very good job! Thank you!
