I agree with Max and with Thomas Zander that the Eclipse darcs plugin

Just to be clear: I am not advocating adopting an LGPL-like or a BSD-like

Indeed. I did not seriously intend to suggest that darcs developers should
drop the or any later version clause.
For what it is worth, I have talked to RMS. I enjoyed the conversation. Among

Yes, but everybody would simply license further improvements under
GPLv2 only, so this isn't a huge deal, really.
