Both of these things are true.  :(

It's FSF policy to include copyright notices in files such as
the baseboard files.

  http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain_8.html#SEC8

But I don't like dependencies where new work is required to fix existing
bugs before the new work can go in.  So, I won't object, but I will moan
and whine.

It's a hard problem.

I think adding the (C) notice to just this file is a start and an
acceptable compromise. Asking to add it to all would definitely be too
much.

I've asked Ben Elliston how the dejagnu maintainers want to handle this,
given the http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain_8.html#SEC8 section.  I'll
forward the reply when I get it.

The answer I got from Ben is that "... all DejaGnu source files have the
FSF copyright header now as part of a recent source clean-up."

Ben has sent me the sh-sim.exp file as he has applied it to the DejaGnu
repository.  I've checked it in to our dejagnu/baseboard directory.

Re: [RFA] New baseboard file sh-sim.exp

I think this file needs a copyright notice.

There are some files, especially auxiliary files like test suite files,
that do not have any copyright notice in them.  :(  You are stepping
into an existing problem, but could you put a standard copyright
notice on the new files at least?

[RFA] New baseboard file sh-sim.exp

[Corinna Vinschen]

Hi,

the below file is a new version of a baseboard file for the SH
simulator, rewritten by Michael Snyder.  It takes the new capabilities
of the simulator into account and it drops the unnecessary -hms from
the name.

Are you proposing that baseboards/sh-hms.exp be removed as well?

The patch looks okay, except for the unnecessary use of semicolons at
the end of lines.

erm... actually I had written the mail so that it also proposed to
remove sh-hms-sim.exp.  But I wasn't quite sure if there's anybody
out there who might rely on the diffences, so I removed that part
from my mail again.

But, yes, IMHO, the sh-sim.exp supersedes sh-hms.sim.exp entirely.
I think we can remove it.

Hey, that's just in two lines ;-)  But I'll change that for the
gdb repository, if the new file gets approved.

Yes, the sh-hms target was removed from gdb. 
Not sure who's approving these. But Ok from me.

See below for a couple of comments.

Applied with appropriate changes (dropped "Cygnus" and " in devo/sim"
from comments, removed the unnecessary semicolons), see below.

I didn't remove sh-hms-sim.exp so far.  If that's ok with the dejagnu
developers, I'll remove it from the gdb repository.

Probably just best to wait for the next DejaGnu release, which isn't
too far off.
