As a side note, I recently found similar prominent begin/end lines in another project and the culprit on that project was the GPLv2 section 2a: "You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change." It's probable that old code from GPLd derivatives still carry such notes. Someone will have to clean them ;). Pedro.
