That means that this part of the code is under the STLPort license.
The STLPort license is not GPL, so you either have to add additional license
information or revert this commit, depending on whether the STLPort license
is compatible with the GPL or not.
The license is here: http://www.stlport.org/doc/license.html. I think it is GPL-compatible, as the intention of the author seems to have been to issue a license freer than GPL: "There are absolutely no restrictions on STLport use in commercial projects, and no royalties are involved. There is no GPL. Please read your free license for details." That said, however, more needs to be added here to conform to the terms of the license, perhaps something like this: "This portion of the code, through the marker `Close STLPort', is copyright 1999,2000 Boris Fomitchev, and has been modified from the STLPort code."
