They are in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2003-03/msg00020.html
(from 2003). The 'relocatable-*' modules were added to gnulib only later, on
2007-03-01.

OK, so they're not something I would need to remove from gnulib.

Do you have any objection to updating the "default" licenses on the files to GPL so that there's no discrepancy with the gnulib documentation?
