Well depending on how paranoid a business you are, Red Hat would need

get permission from each company organization that originated the code.
IE Sun would have to give permission for Red Hat to link to its Java

etc. [Knowing how quick their lawyers seem to jump on infringers who
have pocket books.. I would probably be paranoid.]
Codeweavers does this kind of deep linking now with their plugin, but
you could argue they don't have deep enough pockets to get sued (yet).
