Hmmm, I don't know... The 'License' field in the DESCRIPTION file is not
mandatory. It's just there to give a quick license overview. We could
change the text in DESCRIPTION to "GPL v2 or later, and LGPL v2 or
later". We could also change the license of the LGPL m-files to GPL --
how would it be possible for anybody to link to a script file anyway? I
don't think we should change LGPL C++ files to GPL, as that would go
against the wishes of whoever released the code as LGPL.
