Client applications using the Java libraries are not subject to the
GPL, they are subject to the LGPL, so you can link to the JDBC client
and still use the code in a proprietary application. If you make
change to the JDBC code itself, those changes must be shared, but that
requirement is only for the changed PostGIS code, not for your own
client code.
