The copyright notice was old and outdated. The original contributor of this file to the upstream project, SGI, fixed the copyright notice already back in 2000. I just did the same in the Cygwin LTP testsuite. Other than that, we can't give you definitive legal advice here, for hopefully obvious reasons (IANAL and all that). Have a look into the updated, correct copyright notice and see if it works for you. If you need definitive legal advice, you should really ask your legal dept.
