AFAIK CRAN does not explicitly require use of a GPL license (though obviously the license needs to allow at least free access to the packages and source).

Well, I think that is just a warning that it was built under a different version of R than you are currently running it under. If memory serves, the current KernSmooth is a port to R by Brian Ripley; that message suggests the original KernSmooth was copyrighted by M. P. Wand from 1997 until 2009 (probably the original author in S?).
