Erm, you can take an existing work under the GPLv3 and combine it with
a new one under the AGPLv3, can't you?

/me checks http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html

Yep, nothing seems to limit clause 13 to an *existing* work.
Did I miss something?

By the way, the GPLv3 AGPL-friendly clause is only friendly to AGPLv3,
so what happens when AGPLv4 or AGPLv3.1 comes out?  Oops?
