I see two possibilities:
1. The restrictions described by these notices do not affect the
DFSG-freeness of the files, and the bug can be closed now.
(Possibly the notices should be removed to avoid confusion.)
2. These restrictions do affect the DFSG-freeness of the files,
and there is a serious bug to be fixed, probably by removing the
files.
Please explain why you think neither of these is the case.
Ben.
