One last attempt:

I create a program P that consists of an executable X linked with a
library L. X links with L, but P is a modification of L, albeit a
modification that was made by adding material to L.

If the word "modify" excludes modifications made by adding stuff then
I suspect that quite a lot of licences will need reexamination.
