[patch] Linux -> GNU/Linux in NEWS


(Those spelling errors reminded me)

Richard Stallman noticed that the NEWS file (along with a number of 
source files) speak of ``Linux'' rather than ``GNU/Linux'' and has 
indicated that these need to be changed.
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/why-gnu-linux.html

As a first step, I'm going to update the A.R.I. so that any instances of 
``Linux'' in the source (other than ``GNU/Linux'' or ``Linux kernel'') 
are identified.

nice day for it,
Andrew
