This helps greatly. A quick skim of the first few copyright files that don't mention "version 2 or later" suggests that some of them mention "version 2" explicitly but some of them just don't mention a version; the latter may occur due to incorrect construction of the copyright file, or because the software itself didn't specify a version, but software which doesn't specify a version of the GPL seems rare. Could you perhaps divide the software which doesn't mention "version 2 or later" into three groups: those mentioning "version 2", those mentioning "version 1", and those not mentioning either?
