This sounds like exactly the right course of action to me; please go ahead with that. To answer the original (and completely separate :) ) question: we got a wider variety of feedback on the LGPLv2.5 proposal than we anticipated, so there's still a lot of discussion going on about how best to proceed. I imagine we'll do something to address the compatibility issue one way or another, but right now I can't really say much about what that would be or when it might happen.
