The inclusion of the coorporate copyright is a stipulation of the

This doesn't seem right to me.

It seems very odd that there's a patch that just adds a copyright

What code does this cover and is now copyrighted? What are the license
terms of the copyright holder? I think these things need to be made
clear before this could be accepted.
