I wonder if the boot image contains any GPLv3 software. Could this this allow us to make Nintendo release the OS in a way that allows us to upload custom ROMs (I've heard that there is a home brew community) as well as custom roms (so that we are not limited to 30 games).

  Which one of those is GPLv3 and not GPLv2?

GPLv2 vs GPLv3 probably doesn't matter here; Allwinner-based platforms don't tend to be locked down and this seems to be no exception based on the information available so far.
