Note that this is the same as the earlier notice that pointed to the
COPYING file. So, if we decide to do anything different with that one,
we should do the same here. I tend to view it more as one of those weird
garbage artifacts that linger after files get moved, which actually
should have been removed or changed when the COPYING file was changed to
no longer contain the full text of the GPLv2.
