I'm not exactly sure what you mean here. There is no problem in 
statically linking BSD with LGPL code as long as you redistribute the 
entire source (BSD + LGPL parts) with your binary, right? So then it 
would not be the linking or the license combination that's the problem, 
it becomes only a problem is you redistribute without full source. Is 
that what you're after?
