that's taken 1:1 from pgsql backend, it's generated by 
       

bison. The file
   

   
       

keywords.c needs it to compile. It supplies the official keyword
  

       

checking.

The copyright says that the output file created by Bison *from* that 
file may be used without restriction. That file itself is 
     

GPL according 
   

to the header.

     

So PostgreSQL backend source restricted by this too.
   

Looks like it. What can we do about it?

Dunno... The pgsql people must have discussed this, or did the copyright 
notice invade the file while upgrading requirements to bison 1.875?

Regards,
Andreas
