That's a mischaracterization. The GMGPL is much more permissive than
the LGPL, in that it accomodates the instantiation issue (the LGPL
does not), and it does
not require distribution of object files (the LGPL does).
The GMGPL was created *precisely* because the LGPL was
too restrictive (interestingly the original GNAT contract
required the use of the LGPL, but we interpreted this to
mean any license that gave at least these rights and the
contractor agreed).
