Section 14 of the GPL says "If the Program does not specify a
version number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose any
version ever published by the Free Software Foundation."

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html

Do we want to use version 1 of the GPL? I don't fully understand the
issues with it, but it's an unusual choice.

     Section 14 of the GPL says "If the Program does not specify a
     version number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose any
     version ever published by the Free Software Foundation."
     
You are correct.  That is why I put gpl1+
     
     Do we want to use version 1 of the GPL? I don't fully understand the
     issues with it, but it's an unusual choice.

I don't have a strong opinion here.  But there is a precedent in Guix, that 
where upstream permits a package to be distributed under a choice of licences,
we simply present that choice to our users.  We don't - at least I haven't seen 
any instances of it - choose a particular one that suits us, unless there is a 
good reason for doing that.

Okay, that makes sense to me. Please do as you see fit :)
