Yes, there are. I expect there are several trivial files without any copyright notices (and which are public domain) but I just now audited gnulib for files that are copyright by someone other than the FSF and found the following. Most seem benign, but the last entry may be problematic. build-aux/install-sh is copyrighted by X Consortium with an MIT license. build-aux/po/Makefile.in.in is copyrighted by Ulrich Drepper and "can be copied and used freely without restrictions" (effectively public domain) lib/fts_.h, lib/fts.c, lib/random_r.c are copyright by the Regents of the University of California with a modified BSD license. lib/cosl.h, lib/asinl.c, lib/sinl.c, lib/acosl.c, lib/trigl.c, lib/tanl.c, are copyright Sun Microsystems with an MIT-like license. lib/atanl.c and lib/logl.c are copyright Stephen L. Moshier under GPLv3 or later. lib/inet_ntop.c and lib/inet_pton.c are copyright Internet Software Consortium with an MIT-like license. lib/filevercmp.[ch] are copyright Ian Jackson and Anthony Towns under GPLv3 or later. lib/gc.h is copyright Simon Josefsson under the GPLv2 or later. lib/git-merge-changelog.c is copyright Bruno Haible under GPLv2 or later. tests/unigbrk/GraphemeBreakTest.txt and tests/uninorm/NormalizationTest.txt are copyright Unicode, Inc. under the Unicode Terms of Use <http://www.unicode.org/terms_of_use.html>. Hmmm, those terms don't seem to allow changes, which would not be free software.
