what it really says is that there is no warrenty but perhaps the first few clauses render the whole thing questionable. We must test it in court to see if code can own itself.

Code is not a legal entity, only persons or organizations (consisting of persons) are legal entities, therefore code can not own itself.
I was joking. The question is if because that is invalid, if the disclaimer is invalid too.
Otherwise a virus could have a license like: "All property contained in this virus is owned solely by this virus. By programming software with breaches, you agree to let this virus install itself. You may not uninstall the virus. In case of disagreement, you agree that the virus may sue you in court."
