The authoritative source for the license is specified in the module-definition file, gnulib/modules/c-ctype. It is LGPLv2+. Besides, our invocation of gnulib-tool (in bootstrap) requires that any module be compatible with LGPLv2+ via its --lgpl=2 option, so this is checked automatically. You may rest assured that any module I propose for addition has the right copyright. In addition, when gnulib-tool copies the files into gnulib, it rewrites the license to be what we require: This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
