Sebb or some other license/notice expert can chime in here; but I
suspect this is either not necessary or misplaced.  We were asked to
rip out a lot of stuff like this from [math] NOTICE based on the
argument that only legally required things should be in there.  If
this is a legal requirement, the MIT license asks that you include
the license, which should (IIUC) go in LICENSE, not NOTICE.  Given
that this is a port and not inclusion, though; I am not sure it is
needed.
