A README in the top level directory exposing a GPL licence is an invitation to confusion. So no I stand by this, too bad if this means we need to rewrite the part instead of copying it.
How about if I just remove the copyright notice from that new file (README-hacking)? Besides, then it'll be consistent with README, which has none.
Just fine by me :-) I assumed the copyright notice was there on purpose !
Pushed. BTW, it was deliberate, in the original. Nearly every file in coreutils (even ChangeLog!) has some sort of copyright notice. I toe the line there, but sometimes it seems excessive.
