I don't think so. Since MIT is compatible with GPL. Since LGPL is even
less copyleft, then it should be a lesser problem.

Re-licensing the whole thing is not needed. Most authors don't accept
such code because they want the whole application to be of same
license.

Take for an example - Tomboy. It contains code with MIT, GPL and LGPL
in one same codebase.
