+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #327661 +++

Build ID: Helios SR1

When mining about.html files, I found the following (non-exhaustive) list of about.html files which have broken hyperlinks to the local copy of a 3rd party license. Each of the "filename not matched" below refers to an <a href="..."> statement in about.html which is not matched by an actual file in the plugin.

In most cases, the link is broken due to a case mismatch ('.txt' vs '.TXT' or missing file extension, sometimes a completely different name. I think that respective about.html's should be fixed.

---Equinox---
org.eclipse.equinox.registry_3.5.0.v20100503.jar : about.html
  caution: filename not matched:  about_files/NOTICE.TXT

org.eclipse.equinox.p2.updatesite_1.0.201.R36x_v20100823.jar : about.html
  caution: filename not matched:  about_files/NOTICE.TXT

org.eclipse.equinox.ds_1.2.1.R36x_v20100803.jar : about.html
  caution: filename not matched:  about_files/NOTICE.TXT

p2.updatesite is actually innocent - mis-read my logs, sorry.
Only ds and registry are culprits.
