You originally said that it was released under the GPL/LGPL. Assuming
that is a "You pick" option, then use it under the terms of the LGPL,
which doesn't require releasing the entire source code (just that of
the library which is covered by the LGPL, which you didn't write
anyway).
Alternatively, contact the author of the GPL software and negotiate a
different license. You'll probably have to pay for it, but it still
saves you from rewriting the library from scratch.
