To pick a nit, code under non-GPL OSS licenses /can/ be linked to GPLed
(not LGPLed) libraries as long as the OSS license is a GPL compatible Free
Software License.

See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html#GPLCompatibleLicenses
and http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhatIsCompatible

This includes (but is not limited to):

X11 (aka MIT)
W3C
"modified" BSD (sans advertising clause)
Zlib
and public domain works

See also http://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html for a discussion of
why /not/ to use the LGPL _by_it's_authors_.
