The LGPL is very obvious with claiming that such a change is unrevocable for the master copy of a distributor. So if a distributor _really_ makes such a change, it cannot ship at the same time any software that needs the library under LGPL.
I don't follow down that road. We don't need to have the concept of a master copy. A distributor can have identical copies of code in different packages with different license tags on it. Not very helpful, but perfectly legal.
If you try to go this path, you would need to have the same lib twice on your system and clearly mark which one uses which license.
