But you do infringe copyright by shipping a program including an LGPL'd
library in such a way that the user cannot easily exchange said library
for a newer version, thereby violating the LGPL in letter as well as in
spirit. (Duncan should have chosen another license if he intended to
allow Gtk2Hs being linked to proprietary software and then distributed.)
