Reasonably likely, I'd say, as the tradition outside Emacs is to indent 
copyright notices the same as other text. Let's make lm-verify a bit more 
generous about copyright notice format; this is a good thing to do regardless of 
whether we change update-copyright. I installed the attached patch into master; 
does it suffice to solve the problem?
