The exception says:

    As a special exception to the GNU General Public License, if you
    distribute this file as part of a program or library that is built
    using GNU Libtool, you may include this file under the same
    distribution terms that you use for the rest of that program.

So we may include it as either GPLv2+ or as the license of the rest of
the program.  I just left it as GPLv2+.  So in practice, I don't think
that changes the license.
