If you compare the content of the referenced source file
[ http://www.leapsecond.com/tools/eject.c ]
and the snippet from the OP, it is clear that the ellipsis indicates
that several lines from the original source were removed. It would
have been clearer to have the ellipsis on a new line. There was no
copyright claim in the original source.
