Thanks for bring this to our attention. I, for one, was not aware of the
problem.

Would removing this requirement be enough? Or are there other
incompatibilities?

Should we dual-licence the library? (a la QT maybe?)

You know why the library is not GPL'ed: we want our product to be
available *both* for open source projects and industrial projects.

Best regards,
