It must be possible to distribute code under GPL, BSD or closed

Would LGPL allow for more options including BSD license?

  I would much prefer to see language that didn't specify any
particularly license at all, but instead specified terms that make it
compatible with the maximum number of licenses that includes, but is not
limited to the GPL, LGPL, BSD, MIT/X, and the Apache license.
