Both GPL-3+ and GPLv3+ are supposed to be equivalent.  (There is still on going 
debate which one is "preferred" for oe-core..  the GPL-3+ is the SPDX name at 
least.)

There is a license compatibility table, but for some reason I'm failing to 
current find it in the distribution.  It may simply be that the 
INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE is not using the compatibility table.
