I can fix md5.h, but the other files do have licenses; what is the criteria 
that licensecheck uses?

Breakpad_exc_* are autogenerated RPC stubs.  I can certainly add a BSD lciense 
to them, but if you have any 
recommendations on what the appropriate protocol is, that'd be helpful.  
Otherwise I'll follow up with Danny B.

You can "apt-get install licensecheck" and run it as above to doublecheck.

I think you can put a BSD license on the generated ones as well as some text 
like the 
following:

    if ($licensetext =~ /(All changes made in this file will be lost|DO NOT 
(EDIT|delete this file)|Generated by)/i) {
        $license = "GENERATED FILE";
    }
