After checking a scattering of random packages, I happened across one example of this already in Debian testing: socat. It is GPLv2-only, and is linked against GPLv3 libreadline6 in testing. (filed bug 579494).Umm: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/s/socat/current/copyright This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
I would assume that's rather a mistake in debian/copyright. README is very clear:
