Uhm, I'm much more inclined to remove examples completely than I am to
modify each and everyone with a downstream specific patch to meet a
subjective requirement on what appropriate notice. If a single
additional boilerplate file in the examples directory is not enough...
then I'll just get rid of them entirely and avoid the issue of
accidental confusion concerning what is and what is not _supported_.
