Clarify Derek's code to be licensed "GPL v2 or later" as he has confirmed in private email.

cstim · cstim · commit a4bb22b23cde · 2010-09-04T20:00:15.000Z
All of his other code has been licensed this way all along anyway.

After this change, all source code files are licensed under both
GPL version 2 and GPL version 3, which gives us enough flexibility in case any
requirements might switch to GPL v3-only. But currently we are for sure both.
