Default Commercial vs Private, towing

I seem to recall being told the FAA had exempted towing gliders from
the need for a commercial license as long as no monetary compensation
is received by the private pilot tow pilot. Is this still true or is
flight time alone considered compensation as it is in the rest of the
powered flight realm?
