Only the example applications do.
At least a few years ago when I maintained the openobex package in maemo, if I compiled the library in a system with libbluetooth headers, "ldd libopenobex.so" would reveal a link to libbluetooth.so. However, now that I checked it doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Then you need (a possible updated) patch to use L2CAP, don't you? Yes. We need a patch for FdOBEX and we need a patch for obexd (both of which Nami provided, albeit with the need of some changes/fixes). Applications using BtOBEX would also need changes to support L2CAP, not only due to the updated BtOBEX API, but also to their SDP code which is something not provided by OpenOBEX.
