No, it is not up to the ASF. However, has the ASF attempted to clarify the matter with the FSF? Why not ask the FSF if importing java classes is considered as "derivative work" or simply as "work that uses the library"?

In the absence of a clear response from the FSF, there is no doubt that it is safer to shy away from LGPLed code.

I'm drafting a letter from myself to Richard Stallman. I had thought I'd already sent it but I sent it to myself which is usually what I do when I think something needs more editing.
