Could you add a license to buse.h? It's in a somewhat ambiguous state right now.

I feel like the LGPL would be the best choice for this project, libfuse uses it as well: https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/master/include/fuse.h.

Actually the whole project is licensed under GPLv2. Are you just saying that this should be mentioned in the source files in addition to the LICENSE file?

Yeah, I figured that was the case after looking at it again.

It should indeed preferably be mentioned in the source files in addition to the LICENSE file. See https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html#howto.

Is there any particular reason this project is GPLv2 instead of LGPLv2?
