In this spirit, I'm currently checking Gamma.java against NR in C, 2nd Edition. (And I don't anticipate finding any infringement at all), but, in my mind, it is essential for each committer to have the responsibility of making sure all submitted code is original - checking an implementation against a copyrighted material with full disclosure from a contributor.
