I am looking at my screen which looks like this:

It appears lots of files in the gettext package have this bizarre
comment. According to the FSF, something being "in the public domain"
means "the material is not copyrighted and no license is needed" to
use it. You'll probably need to bring it up with the FSF. It is
bundled in the GNU gettext package which is released under the GPL so
I suspect there needs to be some cleanup to remove these "public
domain" comments throughout.
