You need the agreement of all contributors since 2007-10-28: When we
switched the implicit meaning of "LGPL" on that date, we promised that
all changes up until then could be reverted to LGPLv2+ on demand.

The non-trivial contributors since 2007-10-28 are, according to 'git':
fcntl-h         you, me, Paolo
getopt-posix    you, me, glibc
inttypes        you, me, Paul
locale          you, me
math            you, me, Ben Pfaff
pty             you, me
sched           me
search          you, me
spawn           you, me
stdarg          me
sysexits        --

For the record, I'm okay with my contributions being relaxed

I'm OK with mine too.

glibc is still under LGPLv2+.

So you still need the agreement of Paolo, Paul, and Ben.

I'm okay.

Paolo
