I don't think so. According to the FAQ they don't think it'll change (http://www.videolan.org/press/lgpl-libvlc.html http://www.videolan.org/press/lgpl-libvlc.html). The LGPL requires dynamically linking the library or providing the raw object files if statically linked to allow the end user to change the LGPL library in the code. I've read that the app store's code signing + pay wall to get a signing certificate violates this exception, so it looks like a no go. It would have been nice if they added in a static linking exception.
Hopefully this will allow for other open source software to link to libVLC without having to fully upgrade to GPL however.
