-1 (yes, veto.)

In general, as the original author of this particular module, you might
notice I don't claim attribution. We rely on svn provenance and Changes to
describe code legacy, so these make me very uncomfortable, especially when
injected into our sources. That isn't the key issue.

The statement itself may be presently true. The statement a number of years
from now might be radically false. The presence of this statement makes it
impossible for the future svn hacker to know when to modify the statement
or determine when the sources have changed such that it becomes untrue.

It is a relativistic value judgement, and these aren't useful as legalistic
elements, so the conventional 'portions copyright...' sort of language is
used instead.
