lm-verify, long copyright line


From: Mike Kupfer

(lm-verify "mh-e.el") in master complains that the copyright holder is
not the Free Software Foundation, apparently because the copyright
statement wraps:

;; Copyright (C) 1985-1988, 1990, 1992-1995, 1997, 1999-2017 Free
;; Software Foundation, Inc.

https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html says
that it's okay to split the notice across multiple lines, but lm-verify
apparently doesn't understand that.  Should I ignore the complaint, or
reorganize the statement into multiple lines which each contain the
string "Free Software Foundation", or...?

thanks,
mike
