I was just looking at the whole thing again, and I can't find a reference to libril outside rild and reference-ril. That certainly makes a lot of sense, because Google needs to provide a way of including proprietary GSM libraries in the product. Keep in mind though, that APL2 does not have a problem when it comes to linking against proprietary code, which is I believe one of the reasons why Google went with that. That doesn't clear the other problem though: rild _is_ APL2, which means you can't just take GPL2 code and link rild against it, dlopen included.
