I am not a lawyer, so certainly my comments should not be construed as legal
advice.  But looking at this case, there is nothing interesting in the header
that you actually copied.  It would be impossible for a reviewer to tell if you
copied that or wrote it yourself.

My general rule of thumb is that if I am copying any code of substance I bring
along copyrights.  Otherwise new files like this are mostly all typed by hand
anyway.
