If you're releasing source, then I think Jozef is correct that you can use whichever licence you like. However if those sources rely on library G to work, then you're essentially releasing something that's impossible for your users to use according to the terms of the licences. From the EPL FAQ link that Jozef provided:
you may not combine EPL and GPL code in any scenario where linking exists > between code made available under those licenses. > That sounds pretty cut and dried to me, my interpretation has always been that GPL libs are impossible to use from Clojure, and that Clojure may not be used from GPL applications. I'm not a lawyer however, and this stuff generally gives me hives, so take with a pinch of salt.
