+=head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE
+
+This package has been part of the perl core since the first release
+of perl5. It has been released separately to CPAN so older installations
+can benefit from bug fixes.
+
+This package has the same copyright and license as the perl core:

+    You should also have received a copy of the GNU General Public License

+    For those of you that choose to use the GNU General Public License,
+    my interpretation of the GNU General Public License is that no Perl
+    script falls under the terms of the GPL unless you explicitly put
+    said script under the terms of the GPL yourself.  Furthermore, any
+    object code linked with perl does not automatically fall under the
+    terms of the GPL, provided such object code only adds definitions
+    of subroutines and variables, and does not otherwise impair the
+    resulting interpreter from executing any standard Perl script.  I
+    consider linking in C subroutines in this manner to be the moral
+    equivalent of defining subroutines in the Perl language itself.  You
+    may sell such an object file as proprietary provided that you provide
+    or offer to provide the Perl source, as specified by the GNU General
+    Public License.  (This is merely an alternate way of specifying input
+    to the program.)  You may also sell a binary produced by the dumping of
+    a running Perl script that belongs to you, provided that you provide or
+    offer to provide the Perl source as specified by the GPL.  (The
+    fact that a Perl interpreter and your code are in the same binary file
+    is, in this case, a form of mere aggregation.)  This is my interpretation
+    of the GPL.  If you still have concerns or difficulties understanding
+    my intent, feel free to contact me.  Of course, the Artistic License
+    spells all this out for your protection, so you may prefer to use that.
