MediaWiki is not intentionally GPLv2. It merely is v2 now and the community cannot come to a consensus on whether to change it, thus it remains in its current stagnant state.
I would consider that intentional. The status quo is intentionally staying as it is, because there isn't agreement to change it. (I'll be honest though, I don't really remember what the result was last time the whole GPL version thing was discussed)
Unintentional I would define as - everyone thinks its a good idea to switch, but nobody could be bothered to update the wiki page.
