This mostly removes the postal address of the
FSF.

This was triggered by rpmlint complaining about
that address being outdated.

Nothing much to test here :-)  (the GPL text is used as input for one
of the unit tests, so there *is* a code change involved in master).

Your patch has been applied to the master and release/2.6 branch.
