Frankly, like the Samba 3.2 package, the situation is not even as simple as
fixing the syntax.  While I believe all the code to be under GPLv3 compatible
licences, I'll probably have to do a full licence sweep to verify the full list.

I know we have at least some GPLv2+ code (a crypto cypher, as it happens), and
different components in Heimdal (which is bundled here) come under different
wordings of of MIT or BSD style licences. 

To give you an idea of the scope of the work, the python-wmi package is actually
a fork of Samba4 from over a year ago, but has this many licences:
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/w/wmi/wmi_0.1.6-1/python-wmi.copyright

Some of these have changed in the past year, but I use this as evidence I'm
pretty certain the licence tag header will only get longer. 

When I get the full list, I'll fix the tag.
