This just obviates the need to defend against such claims. And now
anything released in current or future versions of GMP is fair game
:).

Personally, I don't see how accusations of using open source code in
other open source code can be taken seriously in the first place. The
only thing which does make me seriously think about it is the fact
that I want to be sure that people will follow the GPL/LGPL license to
the letter, whatever the subtle requirements might be. With MPIR
licensed under v3+, it will be possible to use more code than before,
resulting in better quality, more sharing, and hopefully, less
bickering in the future.
