According to clause 4, you either provide enough source to compile and load a modified lib, or you use a dynamically linked lib. If you go the dynamic linking route no source distribution is required. I guess they figure the end user can get source from the library project themselves.

> If you go the dynamic linking route no source distribution is required. For your code. The LGPL code still requires source distribution. (Plus, the BSD clause requires attribution.)

  Certainly the authors of said LGPL code are distributing that source. Would it make sense to distribute the source of every .dll included in a project?

    … Yes. That's your obligation under the LGPL. Pretty much your only obligation, actually – other than including the “this is this, by these people, licensed this way” boilerplate text.

    Alternatively you could include the offer to distribute

      Only with (L)GPLv2, I believe.
