Are you sure? You're not modifying the clojure source, so you're not
creating a derivative work. I would think you can create a GPL
licensed library in that case. Anyone who uses your library and
distributes the result would have to GPL their work. This has no
bearing on the clojure license. It's analagous to claiming that Intel
have to GPL their design for the x86 chips that Linux runs on, because
Linux itself is GPL.
