My understanding (although IANAL) is that when you assign copyright to FSF, you, as original author, still retain the right to relicense your code as you see fit for other uses without involving the FSF. So the fact that you are willing to relicense means that you can put your own SHA-2 implementation under LGPL as Simon desired (I'm sure someone else will correct me if I am mis-speaking). - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
