Yes, that shouldn't be a problem. It's clear than the licence on the 2.3
release is intended to be BSD, so the change on trunk is clarifying, not
relicensing.
If 2.3 were under a non-DFSG-free licence, the situation would be different.

I think either should be OK.

Actually, copyright now ends with a line with a space but no newline!
I tweaked that and have uploaded. It will need to go through the NEW queue
which looks like it might take a week or two from the current backlog.
You can monitor it here, though it hasn't appeared yet:
http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html
I'm happy to sponsor future uploads, time allowing (though it's hardly a
complex package, and is very quick to build). But I wouldn't be offended
if you found someone else to sponsor, either temporarily or permanently.
Cheers,
Olly
