This requires at least a comment saying that the copyright isn't actually on Apple's side.
Any legal things to be aware of here?
Also, how much of that do they verify?
As best I can tell, it verifies all of "Copyright 1983-2001 Apple Computer, Inc.", but it looks like I can add just about anything on the end. Suggestions?
How about "Copyright 1983-2001 Apple Computer, Inc. THIS STRING IS ONLY HERE BECAUSE OF MAC OS 9 COMPATIBILITY, COPYRIGHT IS WITH THE OPENBIOS PROJECT AND ITS CONTRIBUTORS".
We could also try some evil client detection - if we know that only MacOS uses the adler32 word, we could patch it to also update the copyright string at the root node of the device tree which won't be user-visible from Forth as the bootloader has already executed ;)
