Not to point out the obvious, but the FSF *is* involved at this point,
since it distributes the gnulib code. Besides, I wouldn't know why the
FSF should forbid GPLv2+ for code that has an obvious interest in being
combined with GPLv2 code (even when it's not clear whether or not that
combination constitutes a derivation in the sense of copyright).
