I haven't gotten the impression that anyone is suggesting to remove or even change any copyright notices.
Copyright documents authorship (like git does too) but says nothing about licensing terms.
Section 1 of the GPLv2 contains: "keep intact all the notices that refer to this License". I'm not a lawyer or I'd have more interesting things to do than to argue on mailing lists, but that doesn't look quite as clear cut to me.
