I've done my best, but I would ask you to check the files where AIST
holds copyright to make sure that they are correct.

In several cases, the AIST copyright had not been updated for many
years (before Emacs 21), whereas the FSF one had. I therefore only
updated the FSF years. You may want to update AIST years too. In
particular, in lisp/language:

chinese.el
devan-util.el
english.el
hebrew.el
japanese.el
korea-util
korean
lao-util
tibet-util
tibetan
viet-util
vietnamese


I would also draw attention to the following files, which have no FSF
copyright at all, it seems. Maybe this is correct, I don't know:

lisp/composite.el
lisp/international/ja-dic-cnv.el
lisp/international/ja-dic-utl.el
lisp/language/greek.el
lisp/language/misc-lang.el
lisp/language/thai-word.el



I am becoming increasingly unhappy with the state of the Emacs
copyright headers, despite a big exercise earlier in the year where
every subdirectory was supposedly signed off as "up to date".
