Aaah, ok, I see your point now, sorry about that, Martin. Yes, you can
get the updated settings. These are contained in the so-called
"administrative templates files" (files with the .adm extension) and are
updated by each service pack or OS. You'll need to manually upgrade
them, check out these links for more information:

How to Upgrade Administrative Template Files

I'd really suggest you get the .adm files from Win2K3 - either from an
installed server or the CD (you'll need to search for *.ad_ files and
then 'expand' them to a temporary folder). This way you'll get all the
new settings and won't have to repeat this for Win2K3. You can just copy
the new .adm files to %systemroot%\inf, overwrite the current files and
when you next open a GPO the GPO Editor will compare timestamps of files
stored in SYSVOL with those in %systemroot%\inf and, by default, will
update the GP with the latest (which, however, can have unwanted effects
in some cases - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-
US;316977). This way you get two benefits - update the GPO and use the
new templates for all new GPOs you create from now on.
