I think there are two problem with these files:
-the tool only looks for the first comment, and the headers in these files
are in the second comment, so the tool won't find it.
-the tool only looks for comments that begin in the first 100 characters
from the beginning (a safety feature, as a few files contain texts of the
license headers as patterns)

I'll look at those.
