Where exactly do you see a problem with the files in admin/ ?

There is 

a) no direct linkage involved

b) the m4 stuff is LGPL 

c) the libtool scripts, etc. are GPL with the following exception:

# As a special exception to the GNU General Public License, if you
# distribute this file as part of a program that contains a
# configuration script generated by Autoconf, you may include it
# under
# the same distribution terms that you use for the rest of that
# program.
