Okay.

Some files are standalone libraries, they are not part of a package
containing several files. It would be weird to say they are part of
themselve. I suggest these files just say nothing.
When I am confident all GNU ELPA package maintainers are notified
when a modification is done in their files through bzr, I will go
through the files and fix a few misleading statements.
