This is a very good point, and this is the reason I use GE Silicone Sealant
II versus GE Silicone Sealant I.  GE Silicone Sealant II is a "neutral cure
silicone" whereas GE Silicone Sealant is an acid or acetoxy cure silicone.
  "Neutral Cure" silicone means no acids are released during the curing
process (note this information was obtained from the GE website).
