I started working on a grub-legacy-doc package today (#724474) and
discovered something amusing.  The licence change to the FDL was
actually introduced *after* 0.97, and pulled into the Debian package by
way of a CVS sync!  This was even fixed previously in 0.97-12, but I
think this was then reverted in 0.97-60 when the packaging switched to
Bazaar branching.

Rather than introducing a new source package for this, I'm therefore
just going to revert these patches again.  Whee.
