Thanks for you response but I am not understanding, you wanted to copy paste some code from a GPL2 project into a GPL3 one ?

  He probably wanted to link the Readline library into his GPL2 program, which according to the owner of the library (the FSF) is not permitted and might have led to his employer's getting sued by the FSF for copyright infringement or at least to his employer's lawyers getting scared, then badmouthing him to management.
