I'll send upstream a note and see if he'll put a COPYING or the like in the
source distribution.  Along with a manifest of which files are under which
license.  The source code files which are GPL say so in the boiler plate at the
top of the .c files.

The .c files that are under the MIT-like license from O'Reilly say in the header
at the top of the file that they are copied from Mastering Algorithms in C by
Kyle Loudon.  It gives the ISBN number and a link to the book's page on
O'Reilly.  I wondered about what license these files were under so I downloaded
the original examples .tgz from O'Reilly where these files came from and read
the license in there. 

So no, the license is not specifically mentioned in haproxy itslf, but the
source code that is from the Loudon Book is duely noted.

All in all, each .c file in haproxy says where it came from, who wrote it, and
if its under GPL it states that.
