Sorry, no.  Not unless we are removing all the other "personalized"
comments, of which we have quite a few.  Some examples:

    /* Rewritten for clarity and GC protection by rms in Feb 94.  */

    /* There is no way to specify the before_dot and after_dot
       operators.  rms says this is ok.  --karl  */

    /* rms, 2003-01-03: I think I have fixed this bug.  */

Personally, I don't like to remove other people's credit, even when
expressed in this form.  But if we are going to delete all such
comments, I won't object.
