re-license 'byteswap' as LGPLv2+?

Hi!  I wanted to use the 'byteswap' gnulib module in libntlm (licensed
under LGPLv2), but it didn't work:

gnulib-tool: *** incompatible license on module byteswap: LGPL

The reason is that the 'byteswap' module says the license is 'LGPL'.

Would it be possible to re-license module from 'LGPL' (I've forgotten
which version that refers to) to LGPL version 2 or later,
i.e. 'LGPLv2+', as the following patch?

Thanks,
/Simon
