That means, IN EVERY CASE, you must distribute the *.o files, even if

sorry, this is wrong or at least missleading.

you have to distribute your object files ONLY if you link STATICALY
against a LGPLed library. if you link dynamicaly you just have to
deliver the binary, because the user can relink with any API compatible
version of that library anyway.
