Yeah, I just pulled the Copyrights over by standard practice of code
movement, but I agree they don't make much sense for the code I moved.
I suck at copyright management and would be happy for suggestions here.
If Rivos would like to put one here for the work Evan did, then I'll be
happy to add it. Or, if people prefer, I could add a Ventana copyright.

For me, whatever protects the open source code best is best :-)
