Well, I must have written a bit more clearer. In this review request (rubygem-ncursesw)
some example ruby codes (i.e. scripts written in ruby), not "documents", are licensed
under LDPL. How should such case be treated?

(GPL incompatibility doesn't matter for this review. The sample ruby codes actually
  uses rubygem-ncursesw but rubygem-ncursesw is under LGPLv2+)
