Nah, it's really pretty standard stuff for stock-related releases. If
you look at virtually any tech IPO documentation it'll contain something
similar to the following. It's all part of the "full disclosure" stuff
you have to do when you're a public company. Microsoft probably has a
bit in their stock reports that says something similar, only without
reference to open-source software.
It's boilerplate legal mumbo-jumbo and nothing to get worked up about.
