You can (equivalently) distribute some specific libc.so with your application. I don't think anyone other than GNU maximalists believes this infects your application with the (L)GPL.

You'd need to distribute ld.so also, otherwise you'll run into ld/libc incompatibilities.

  Sure.

    ... and ld.so needs to be at a specific absolute path so you can't just distribute it along with your application, you need to use an actual container for this.

"GNU maximalist" is an odd choice of wording, since it would seem to imply people who are the most well-informed about the project's licenses, but anyone who thinks that distributing an LGPL library without your own app's corresponding source code is someone who flat out doesn't understand the LGPL.

  A mistake in my own wording crept in here; this should have said: > one who thinks that distributing an LGPL library without your own app's corresponding source code is forbidden is someone who flat out doesn't understand the LGPL
