It is a tiny change.

Subject: copyright.el vs. version "3"
Now that I've switched coreutils to GPL V3, I find the default behavior
(asking me if I want to downgrade to version 2) to be annoying -- and ironic.
This is against emacs built from cvs (git, actually :-) today.
Here's the patch I'm using:
2007-07-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
GPL v3 is the latest: copyright.el should not prompt for a v3 comment
* emacs-lisp/copyright.el (copyright-current-gpl-version): Set to 3.
* autoinsert.el (auto-insert-alist): s/2/3/ in the generated comment.
