If by operating system you mean the surrounding userland application, then yes, why should there be a problem with a GPL2 kernel and a GPL3 userland? After all, the userland is not only GPL, but also BSD and other stuff. >The last Q. is how good is the almost forgotten Hurd kernel? Wild guess: At most on par with Minix.
