In the file:

³See COPYING² [where the COPYING file is a copy of the GPL]

Metadata:

asserted license: GPL-2.0

license information in file: ³See COPYING²
Are we going to define the mechanism for deciding if a bit of text
that is not a standard header is a licensing statement? Or is it just
the best effort of the producer?
