bison.hairy and skeleton licenses?

Hello Bison folks,

1) bison.hairy seems to have no copyright statement at all (unlike
   bison.simple).  I gather bison.{hairy,simple} are no longer
   installed, so maybe this is moot.  On the other hand, maybe it should
   be reinstalled just to fix the license, even if current bison doesn't
   use it, since I'm sure some installations still use it.

2) the new skeletons (lalr1.c, glr.c, yacc.c) have only the standard
   GPL.  Do they need a "special exception" a la bison.simple?  (Below.)
