The week is over. I'm marking the modules that you specified as LGPLv2+.
Except the tests, because they can be under GPL without problems, since they
are not installed into libraries.

Note that the following modules are not yet marked as LGPLv2+. I don't know
if you intended it like this.
  crypto/arcfour:LGPL
  crypto/arctwo:LGPL
  crypto/hmac-md5:LGPL
  crypto/hmac-sha1:LGPL
  crypto/md5:LGPL
  crypto/rijndael:LGPL
  crypto/sha1:LGPL
