Thanks for the advice.  Alas, "license writer" isn't part of my job
description, and at any rate, I know enough about the law to know I'd
mess it up if I tried... :)

I hope I can either get approved or (better yet) find an
already-approved LGPL variant that accomplishes what I'm after. 
Actually, what I _really_ hope is that LGPL version 3 or something like
it is a better interface between the commercial and OSS worlds than
version 2.
