Hi Pedro, thank you, this confirms what I suspected from my understandings. Then this also is the case with PortAudio, since this is released under GPL, too.
Cleaning this up, prevents me from wasting time with this anymore.

Absolutely. GPL and LGPL licenses require you to provide all the source code needed to rebuild the distributed binary library upon request from an user. Steinberg explicitly forbids you to distribute the source code of the ASIO SDK, (or the VST SDK) when you accept the online download conditions. If you distribute a binary product under a GPL/LGPL license linked to one of those Steinberg SDKs you are going to break one license. Regards, Pedro
