Agreed, but the resulting names are a bit confusing, as COPYING is v2
but its name does not say "v2".
Also, the existing COPYING and COPYING.LIB files have out-of-date
contents (they contain US mail addresses that are no longer valid).
So I suggest copying Gnulib's COPYINGv2, COPYINGv3 and COPYING.LESSERv2
files verbatim, with the same names as Gnulib, and removing the old
COPYING and COPYING.LIB files.
