I've applied the attached patches to update --version copyright notices to say 2006 (mainline and active release branches), per the FSF principles that (1) the --version date should be just the most recent year, not a list of dates and (2) the dates should cover all changes to the package rather than needing to track when particular parts changed. (If we really want to apply that principle to *all* copyright notices, and update every file on January 1 each year rather than subsequently forgetting to update notices, we'll need a script to do so.) I've only touched gcc/, not programs outside there (e.g. libjava) with --version copyright notices, and haven't touched the various such notices in gcc/ada (which use ranges of years and in some cases are in the name of the FSF, in other cases in the name of AdaCore). -- Joseph S.
