Still?
Does the Linden version of the GPL explicitly exclude those
libraries? If not, you can't legally distribute a binary version of
the open source client, since those are not a standard part of the OS
it runs on. Not that that's likely to create practical problems,
given that it's unlikely Linden Labs will get on your case about it.
The FLOSS exception does not appear to cover this, and according to
the FSF the fact that they're shared libraries doesn't make a
difference: shared libraries are not 'independent and separate works'.
