Don't read too much into license statements on files (after all they 
have no real legal significance). I would think it very unlikely that
SGI would allow a file to be licensed under any future license written
by someone they have no control over. After all GPL version 4 could say
all sorts of unacceptable things from their point of view.

As I said before, these kind of licensing issues are all discussable,
both with SGI, and with FSF.

Certainly software licensed under GPL 2.0 is Free Software :-)
