A legal pedant once informed me that "(c)" is not a valid copyright mark. He says that the only valid marks are the C-in-a-circle character or "(copr)". It probably isn't uniform but the Berne Convention may have some rules. As usual IANAL so do your own checking but I'd hate to see somebody doing truly free software losing his/her rights over a tiny detail if the message I had was correct. >From the land "down under": Australia.
