MimeDefang is _not_ GPLv2-only right now:

Quote from mimedefang.pl:
"# This program may be distributed under the terms of the GNU General
# Public License, Version 2, or (at your option) any later version.
"

GPLv2 did foresee this situation ;-)
So a shift to GPLv3 is possible regardless of any patches.
