You can ask them, but no--Apache can't include LGPL/GPL licensed products
itself, it doesn't license anything under (L)GPL.  Read the latter two
paragraphs here:  http://www.apache.org/licenses/GPL-compatibility.html .

Binary CPL is allowed in Apache products
(http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html).  We use other non-Apache but
Apache-compatible licenses as well (the BSD license, Sun's CDDL license --
used with CXF's included JAXB) so even if we could fix your WSDL4J concerns
you'd still have one with CXF's include JAXB (and probably SAAJ).  

Another option is that you can switch to Metro
(https://metro.dev.java.net/), dual-licensed under GPL.
