Thanks!  I should have checked this more carefully.  The LICENSE file in
the folder above may well be sufficient.  I would appreciate, though, if
there was a short license hint/indicator in each file (at least if there
is a copyright notice), and indeed it appears sensible to add copyright
lines to indicate that individual files have been modified.
