RMS commented on this recently on gnu-prog only I now can't find the e-mail - I carefully filed it away in my pile of things to fix. He recommended that such files contain an abbreviated notice that maded it clear that the file was still a part of the GNU project. Hmm, just got another e-mail forwarded to me on this.
