In this case, we've had clear directions from the FSF that new files should always have a copyright header. The lack of header in other files is a potential issue which we'd like to solve, if we had the time (to do the research)... But, in the meantime, making sure that new files have the header allows us to at least not make things worse. Thank you, -- Joel
