That is not "noise".  :-O  You are 100% correct that 9.2beta1 should
_not_ show 2011!  The 9.2 major release comes out in 2012 and should
show 2012 everywhere.

We created copyright.pl for 9.2, and it seems it is lacking in some
areas.  I just made several commits to fix problems I found:

* Fix perltidy problem caused by missing regex slash --- this was the
only file to generate an error file from perltidy, so I am confident
about the other files.  I reverted the perltidy and re-ran it to make
sure things were good.

* Fix code that was supposed to skip the .git directory, but wasn't
(added basename() call)

* Modified code so all lines are processed, not just the first match ---
this fixes the help.c file that causes the original report above.  I
checked the impact of not stopping after the first match and could not
find any problems.

The attached, applied patch to head and 9.2 addresses all these issues.
Thanks for the report.
