I don't think linking against the Apple's support libraries is a 
violation of of the LGPL's spirit or word by any reading.

Anyone who wants a Windows WebKit port for commercial use is best off 
using GTK+, Wx or helping out with the new Cairo-based Win32 port (or 
using the browser in Qt if they already have a commercial Qt license).

Some examples of commercial Windows apps using WebKit (to the best of my 
knowledge):

   http://www.synctv.com/ (GTK+)

   http://www.digsby.com/ (Wx)

The only obligation these companies are under is to give back their 
changes to WebKit.
