Android seems in a good way (I hopes that google or Nokia will not find a way to not let it do) .. for ios it seems that the problem is more commercial (apple nokia) than real technical trouble : http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/7271/

Yep. LGPL 2.1 does not contain any special restrictions on static linking.
The only paragraph containing word "static" is:
"When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
the library."
