I have to disagree strongly with this statement.

MPlayer is GPL v2 as stated in the LICENSE file, so any file without an
explicit "or later" clause (or with an header showing a different
GPL-compatible license) should be considered GPL v2 only. This also
applies to patches written by someone different from the original
author of the file.

And that's independent from personal opinions about GPLv2/v3.

Ciao,
 Roberto
