Thanks for your concern in improving Emacs!
If you only plan to make minor changes, such as the one you mentioned,
you don't need a copyright assignment. When you'll start to give
contributions that are more than, say, 20 lines, you'll have to get the
legal paper on, but for now on, it's OK ; you just modify the file, and
post the patches at emacs-devel@gnu.org. Your proposal is then reviewed
and discussed, and if it's OK, it will be installed.
Welcome in the GNU world, where `free' stands for `freedom'! :-)
