By incompatible, the FSF means that it sees no legal way to combine code
licensed under GPLv2 with code under GPLv3. Such incompatibility is only
an issue if developers want to link, merge or combine code from programs
licensed under GPLv2 and GPLv3. "There is no problem in having
GPLv3-covered and GPLv2-covered programs side by side in an operating
system," Stallman wrote. 

The FSF will take comments on the fourth draft for 29 days and plans to
officially publish the final GPLv3 license on June 29. 

The fourth draft of GPLv3 and Stallman's essay are on the FSF's Web site
at http://gplv3.fsf.org/.
