Unfortunately they are not covered by the BSD licence comerr32.dll & krb5_32.dll are part of MIT Kerberos, released under the MIT licence iirc - http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/dist/index.html libintl-2.dll & libiconv-2.dll are from GNU Gettext, released under the LGPL licence (iirc) - http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/ libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll are from OpenSSL, released under the OpenSSL licence (again, IIRC) - http://www.openssl.org. All these components are technically optional though - if you don't need one or more, you can compile your own build of PostgreSQL without any one of them - see the --with-openssl, --enable-nls and --with-kerberos configure options.
