In short, yes.

Anybody who has an application that is GPLv2-only and has accepted
enough contributions that it has become an unreasonable proposition to
relicense has made a significant mistake.  I don't want to punish them
or anything, but they are the ones who picked a licence that prevents
them from linking against just about anything.
