Christian, I check both of these links and found nothing challenging the
validity of any interpretation by the Free Software Foundation of any part of
GPL or LGPL. These would be the relevant possible lawsuits that might reflect
on this discussion. If you can find any, it would be enlightening.

I think there have been numerous lawsuits involving at least GPL. Check either
the Software Freedom Law Center web site
(https://softwarefreedom.org/) or http://gpl-violations.org/
