I think Gilbert Ramirez contributed the original versions of those; I
think all the rest of his contributions are GPL'ed - Gilbert, any reason
not to add a GPL comment to them?

Nathan Neulinger contributed those; the corresponding C files are
GPL'ed.  I don't know if he's still reading the lists.

I think Uwe Girlich contributed those; again, the corresponding C files
are GPL'ed.  I don't know if he's still reading the lists.

Christophe Tronche contributed that; epan/dissectors/packet-x11.c is
GPL'ed.  I don't know if he's still reading the lists.

Gerald?  That one's yours, I think....

I'm not sure whether that comes with Lemon or if we added it.

That one's arguably mine - none of the declarations are from BSD - I
added the vec_t structure and the declaration of in_cksum_shouldbe().
Given that in_cksum.c is copyrighted by the Regents of the University of
California with a 3-clause BSD license, I guess we could put that
license on in_cksum.h.

grammar.c is a generated file; the license comes from Lemon - see the
comment at the beginning.  grammar.h is also generated by Lemon; for
better or worse, it adds no copyright notice to it.

For packages that, in their source tarballs, include generated files,
such as the output of yacc/bison/lex/flex/lemon/etc., is there a
standard Debian policy on whether the build process should rebuild them,
or just use the versions that come with the source tarball?

It now has a GPL copyright notice on it - Anders added it on July 19th.
