The init script(s) provided in FILESDIR for dev-ruby/stompserver has a license of GPL-2 but GPL-2 isn't within the LICENSE variable of the ebuild(s):

files/stompserver has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
stompserver-0.9.9-r1.ebuild:LICENSE="Ruby"

There are two options here -- either LICENSE in the ebuilds should be appended with GPL-2 to cover the init script, or the init script should be relicensed so that it is covered by current LICENSE (this one is probably the preferred resolution).  See also bug 425702 .
