Really?  Isn't this closer to use'ing a perl module than linking a C
library?  Unless we get into stuff like precompiling templates to
include bits of Bootstrap.  Anyone know the case law?  After the awful
GPL3 drafting process, I walked away from licensing theory a bit so
I'm not 100% sure.

Even if it was like C linking, that would move only koha-tmpl to GPL3+
(because it derives from both the GPL2+ perl parts of Koha and the AL2
Bootstrap), but the perl parts could remain GPL2+ without problem.

Thanks,
