I installed the attached patch to the Gnulib copy of idx.h to do that.
This uses the same wording as what's in glibc's scratch_buffer.h.

Subject: [PATCH] idx: change idx.h comment to LGPLv2.1+
* lib/idx.h: Change license notice to match what should be in glibc.
gnulib-tool will change it as appropriate anyway, so this is just
to simplify syncing with glibc.
