Log:
  Add GMGPL to license database
  
  The GNAT Modified General Public Licence is an older license that is
  commonly used with Ada programs, specifically to address legal quirks
  with the Ada generics feature.
  
  It is meant to be used as "multi" licence in combination with GPL or
  GPLv2.  It is not typically seen combined with GPLv3 to my knowledge.
