I think he's saying that the Android developers in question don't have a proper understanding of the GPL, and rather than trying to circumvent it, they were trying to circumvent the LGPL. Which as he said, is pointless, because you can write a proprietary or BSD-licensed application and interface with the LGPL without any problems. The only reason to do what they did is if they wanted to distribute a full kernel that works like Linux, but is BSD-licensed. Obviously they did no such thing, nor did they even attempt to do so.
