I use the recommended wording in files like mskrb5_fmt. In files that
someone else wrote and I just added stuff (these are the vast majority
of my patches), I can't claim "the" copyright, can I? Or maybe I can
claim a copyright for the few lines of mine, but then I'm not sure how
to word it. Maybe I should just say "This and that added by magnum 2012"
and nothing more?
There's also files like para-best.sh which is a new file but is a 95%
copy of best.sh which is your file. Not sure how to word a statement
there. I do like to keep it short but it's more of not knowing what to
write in these cases.
