How about something even more neutral, like:

	This is a generated file.
	See the original file for copyright and license information.

since, as you pointed out, docstrip shouldn't assume anything about the
licensing, which can be either LPPL, GPL, Artistic, etc, and docstrip does
actually print the name of the source file (with the options used) at the
very beginning of the file.
