Uhm... this is license stuff (e.g. I am hiding under my desk now with a
sign "I am not a lawyer" (and I don't like license discussions anyway...
I like to get my stuff done and not spend my time in endless "... my
license is better than yours..."-debates)) ... ;-(

Umpf... is there a way to avoid that ?
"usr/src/lib/libshell/misc/ksh93_solaris_builtin_patch.diff" only
touches src/lib/libshell/common/data/builtins.c to add an |#include
"solaris_cmdlist.h"| there and adding any Sun/Solaris/etc. copyright
template would turn this mini-patch into a giant monstrosity.
Can we just say we "don't care" and accept the AT&T copyright in that
file ? :-)

Grumpf... I removed those a while ago because they were listed as "April
Chin and Roland Mainz", however the Sun rules do not allow the listing
of single engineers in source and therefore I removed the lines. IMO
both project leads should be listed or none (IMO it would feel a little
bit unfair otherwise...).
