This is unrelated to LGPLv2.5. (I shouldn't have mentioned the two independent
topics in a single mail; my bad.)

If LGPLv2.5 comes to exist, it may replace some of our uses of LGPLv2+.

We are moving to LGPLv3+ only those parts of gnulib where we consider
that GPLv2 compatibility is not desired; in these cases LGPLv2.5 has no
advantage over LGPLv3+.
