(And similarly for several other files.)

It was my understanding, ref eg
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html#Copyright-Notices
that this kind of change (which adds 2004 to the list of copyright years
when it was not there before) should not be made.
I don't imagine it matters though.

(And obviously it has no relation to outline headers.)

FWIW, Google seems content with just updating the range:
