One more thing.
The pom has this date: 2008/03/07
Here is the license page from archive.org at that time (2008/03/17):
http://web.archive.org/web/20080317033310/http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/license.html

You can see the double MIT license there: the same contained in the file.

I think there is enough evidence that that work was released under
that license (MIT) and not the GPLv2.

Is this convicing for you?
