Minor legal nit, for the future, you don't actually say what the license
is for this file.  You imply it by using the GPL paragraphs about
warranties, and the totally-useless office address information (do you
really want to track the office movements of the FSF for the next 40
years?), but it's not specified.

In the future, you can drop these two paragraphs, and just add a
sentance about the file being released under the GPLv2 instead.

thanks,
