 The description of the provenance of the code and its authorship is
 useful.  I don't think the second copyright notice is useful in this
 case, since it's also Red Hat, like the first.  Likewise, I don't
 think the GPL invocation is useful, since we're not changing that
 license. 
That's simply a full quote of the original terms. It's not required for
any purpose, but I think it's more convenient to just quote as-is
rather than editing bits outs of it.
