Mmm. You're both wrong, in that Rando's statement is incomplete. The
LGPL also requires that one provide a relinkable target for statically
linked binaries. That is, one must deliver the .lib files as well as
the .exe so that the person who then wants to further modify the
LGPLed library may then relink their modified version of the library
with yours.
