well, of course v3 is already out... i used to leave out the 'or later' as 
well, but this is creating problems for kde as some of our dependencies move 
to LGPLv3 which is incompatible with LGPLv2 or GPLv3 which is incompatible 
with GPLv2 (though LGPLv2 is ok). we can keep our stuff under GPLv2, the 'or 
later' clause will help us get around these issues.

(two of these v3 projects are samba and gpgme; more will follow)
