The .gnulib subdirectory is the gnulib submodule, so it contains a
complete copy of the gnulib upstream sources.
The 'interesting' modules are ones which are copied into ../gnulib,
and then only the ones which are actually used from libguestfs library
code (not from the tools which are themselves GPLv2+). Gnulib doesn't
exactly make it easy to determine these licensing issues.
