FWIW the YP documentation states to mark GPL LGPL and AGPL v3 in
INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE to build a GPLv3 image, on the rationale that the
usual clauses that upset people are not specific to the GPL variation.  The
autobuilder just excludes GPL right now, but there's a bug to fix this.

Of course IANAL and the opinion of someone who actually does use
INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE to remove GPLv3 software would be appreciated!
