Legal decisions are for lawyers. That being said the update at the start of the comment on the indicated link seems clear:

Update: 07/18 02:44 GMT by CN: The FSF's Executive Director, Brad Kuhn adds "LGPL's S. 6 allows you to make new works that link with the LGPL'ed code, and license them any way you see fit. Only the LGPL'ed code itself must remain Free. Such 'client code' can even be proprietary; it need not be LGPL'ed."

... and although it looks like the guys from FSF have somewhat clarified
their earlier statements, it still leaves some doubt as to how commercial
companies (such as the one I work for) are effected by the use of LGPL
software as a basis for implementing closed source products.
