2001-07-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	* manual/argp.texi: Remove ignored LGPL copyright notice; it's
	not appropriate for documentation anyway.
	* manual/libc-texinfo.sh: "Library General Public License" ->
	"Lesser General Public License".

2001-07-06  Andreas Jaeger  <aj@suse.de>

	* All files under GPL/LGPL version 2: Place under LGPL version
	2.1.
