I'm doubtful that there is a legal difference between a. shipping a binary linked to the GPLed libfoo b. shipping a binary linked to libbar, with a wrapper that LD_PRELOADs libfoo
In either case you have some data that instructs ld.so to load libfoo with the binary, and in both cases that data is being shipped with the binary. The intent is clearly to ship software that uses libfoo, and that software is not GPL-compatible, so you can't do that. IANAL, YANAL: So, this should not be done without consulting a lawyer. -- see shy jo
