Everything in gl/ is installed by gnulib (which allows multiple licenses
depending on the module). The core plugins are v3 or higher as some of
the required gnulib libraries are now only available in v3.

If you see differences in gl/ then you may bring is up to the gnulib
mailing list. However I don't see much differences beside some wording.
The GPL v3 is an official document and both license text specify to use
GPL v3 or higher.
