Update FSF Address

Thanks for the patch. I think it's better to just remove the address throughout the codebase, like the FSF recommends, since nowadays we have the Internet and don't need to write letters to get software licenses anymore.

P.S. If you submit any more of these patches in the future, feel free to just push them yourself, so they don't languish in Bugzilla. No sane maintainer is going to complain.
