Currently what we (as in the Yocto Project) test is that core-image-
minimal and core-image-full-cmdline build without GPLv3 components. The
maintainers would likely need to ensure that continues (or
define/evolve their own criteria), ensure that the dated software
continues to work as the project moves forward and that security issues
get handled.
