Kevin is correct, you're interpreting the wiki incorrectly. Basically:

GPLv2+ == "GNU General Public License v2.0 or later"
and
GPLv2 == "GNU General Public License v2.0"

These statements are not "inclusive", meaning you can't include something GPLv2
in a GPLv2+ licensed project and still call it GPLv2+ because GPLv2 is
technically more restrictive than GPLv2+, not the other way around.

Hopefully I explained that correctly. And thank you Kevin as usual for
straightening me out!

Richard
