Strictly speaking, this would normally be a problem, as those files are licensed
BSD with advertising (which is GPL incompatible).

However, the RSA MD5 implementation is a special case, where RSA has given
everyone permission to use their implementations "without license from RSA", so
that is how Fedora will use that code.

You should advise upstream to read:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-legal-list/2008-January/msg00002.html

Upstream should also be advised to strongly consider "using" that code without
the RSA license, to avoid this sort of licensing confusion.

Lifting FE-Legal.
