Which was?  I am serious; I would like to know.  (I am aware of the viral
nature of the GPL, but I am also aware that in spite of having OSI approval
the CA-TOSL had no street credibility at all.)

It's the database connectivity drivers issue. To allow ISVs embed
Ingres connectivity drivers into their closed source application
you need to license them (the drivers) with LGPL, not GPL.
