I would like to use the module 'clean-temp' and, with it, the modules 'error'
and 'getprogname' in a library under GPLv2+ (namely, GNU libffcall) and in a
gnulib module for JIT support.

To this effect, I would like to ask for your permission to relicense these
modules (error and getprogname) from LGPLv3+ to LGPLv2+.

The lib/error.c code is based on the one in glibc (LGPLv2+). Here we would need
the approval of
  Pino Toscano
  for 
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=commitdiff;h=f29814b96c9737abc8193d57d630697700feebeb

For lib/getprogname.c we would need the approval of
  Pino Toscano
  Paul Eggert
  Jim Meyering
  Gisle Vanem
  Daniel Richard G
  John David Anglin
  Benji Wiebe

To give your approval, please reply with the mailing list in CC.
