It would be easy enough to do by just saying:

main(..args for XFCN..)
{

	/* it would probably make sense to put the following into an
		include file like "Copyright.h" and #include it here. */

	goto past_copyright;
	asm {
		dc.b	'C'
		dc.b	'o'
		dc.b	'p'
		dc.b	'y'
		dc.b	'r' 		; etc...
	}
	past_copyright:

	/* code... */
}

I know it's not pretty, but it would do it.  It's true that you probably
won't get this exactly at the beginning of the code resource since LSC
puts glue there.  If you switch to LSC 3.0 you can use a custom code
resource header (see the manual for details) which would allow you to
control everything I believe.
