I think that is a bug in the Release FAQ. What i've been told in the
past but which i can't find links to right now, is that the top level
LICENSE file covers everything anyway and the individual license
headers aren't strictly necessary especially for source files without
significant IP. IMHO if the headers are problematic for Wookie in
those files then it would be ok to just not include the header.
