The pattern of an unversioned GPL with a reference to COPYING was under
discussion in item (3) of the thread "clarification on -only and
-or-later". We didn't reach a final conclusion on whether the
unversioned GPL (GPL-1.0-or-later) or COPYING (GPL-2.0-only) should
dominate, so we've been holding these for later review.

Is unversioned GPL (whatever that *really* supposed to mean :o) a
valid license here ? (or could it become one for old code ?)

In that case, could we just state that in the spdx header and leave
it aside, until somebody *really* needs to know it exactly ?
