If it's really outputting nothing, then there's something odd going on
that's nothing to do with whether you've spaced things differently.
Even running licensecheck on a configuration file gives _some_ output:

a...@kaa:~$ licensecheck /etc/devscripts.conf 
/etc/devscripts.conf: *No copyright* UNKNOWN

fwiw, saving the file you attached and running licensecheck on it works
here:

a...@kaa:~$ licensecheck gpl-test.txt 
gpl-test.txt: GPL (v2 or later)

Yes, it is.  See above.

It's got nothing to do with the regexps.  As examining the source would
have shown, after removing newlines, tabs and comment characters,
multiple spaces are squashed.  As far as licensecheck is concerned, the
following snippets are identical:

# foo bar fizzbang
# baz fizz

# foo bar
# fizzbang baz
# fizz
