The following are the hands with GIB's impossible re-bid I collected in a few months.

Hand-1


Hand-2



Hand-3



Hand-4



According to these hands,2♠ as a limited raise,we can be easier to find the meanings of the impossible 2♠ GIB played is 3 card ♠ with stopper in ♠,so there are many different with the impossible 2♠ re-bid most of us played.
For me,the exact meanings of that is ♠ 0-3 card without exact stopper in ♠.
so I suggest that GIB should tell us wether or not stopper in ♠.

Hand 1 I would have opened 1N. How that would have developed 1 don't know. I have no great objection to ending in 3N however we get there. 1H arguably inhibits a Heart lead. Hands 2 and 3 you landed spot on.

Why do these illustrate a problem? OK at MP hand 3 may not be great but South contributed to avoiding 4H.

Hand 4 is a difficult one but I am not sure that the proboem is with the 2S. South's 3N seems to be an overbid given that North has yet to announce game values. With absolute subminimum opener the rebid over 2S that is most likely to end the auction under anything like controlled conditions would be 3C.
