Exactly my point. Even though your app has nothing directly to do with DynAPI, the
act of distributing the dynapi files along with an application forces the whole
application ("A work based on the library" from the LGPL) to be LGPL or GPL'd. I'd
love to be able to say to you "yes no problem to use DynAPI for your product" but it
can't happen until at the very least the core files are under a BSD or equivalent
licence that allows non-GPL distribution of the files.
