It's about this setting in make/Docs.gmk:
# $1 - Relative prefix to COPYRIGHT_URL
COPYRIGHT_BOTTOM = \
<a href="$(strip $1)$(COPYRIGHT_URL)">Copyright</a> \
© 1993, $(COPYRIGHT_YEAR), $(FULL_COMPANY_NAME), \
$(COMPANY_ADDRESS).<br>All rights reserved. \

$(DRAFT_MARKER_STR) <!-- Version $(VERSION_STRING) -->
JAVADOC_BOTTOM := \
<a href="$(BUG_SUBMIT_URL)">Report a bug or suggest an enhancement</a><br> \

I'm hoping that we can all agree that the documentation redistribution
policy does not apply to open builds. So the built documentation for
open builds should not refer to it.
