You only added two tables to that file, which almost certainly are not
copyrightable so that is just plain wrong.
I personally don't think you should add them to golomb.h either, simply
because if everyone added a copyright for contributions this size we
would have a really long, long list in most files.
Who wrote that code will still be recorded in the SVN log after all.
