I agree with you about the files above and wanting them to go away too. 
The canonical GNU method for building a package is (configure; make; 
make install). The do* scripts and reconf really don't fit that model. 
I'll go ahead and put copyrights on the files, but I'll also start 
giving it some thought about getting rid of these. I'll make an item in 
the TODO.

While I'm at it, can I have your permission to fix all of your 
copyrighted files in avr-libc to add the missing clause?
