Because you need to exclude 1981, 1982, 1984, 1985, 1987 and 1990
which are missing in list of years. :-)
There's that, also that copyright message belongs to the Regents of
the University of California and unless I misremember one of the license
conditions is retaining their copyright notice - altering it would probably
be a license violation.
It seems the regents copyright claims end in 1994. Perhaps some
underlying piece of code is still in FreeBSD requiring this notice?
