I'm not sure what's going on here, but it's definitely not that. I put
the license text immediately after the License header in the Files stanza
all the time, without any complaint.
I don't see any problem with Lintian 2.5.28, and I see on the Lintian
report page that it was processed with Lintian 2.5.26. Maybe this is a
bug that was already fixed? There were several false positives fixed in
2.5.27.
