There is no such option, all extensions have to be GPLed. At least if 
you want to avoid confusion. Here are my thoughts on that subject:

I think it's ok to use (or reuse) some general/library code in your 
extension that is LGPLed. IMHO any GPL-compatible licence will do, but 
some might disagree (see Michael Scharkow's post).

An XCLASS extension OTOH will have to be GPLed as it is clearly a 
derived work.
