Probably we are using the word "compatibility" in a different way.
Essentially what I wanted to say is the following:

If Sage claims that all the code it contains can be licenced under
GPLv2+, then it cannot contain GPLv3 (or GPLv3+) licenced code.

So I think the following still holds:
either
1) the requirement "spkgs must be able to be released under GPLv2+" must
be removed
2) we release Sage under GPLv3+
3) we remove all GPLv3+ code from Sage

Personally, I would go for 2).
