I think most PKGBUILDs are too simple to be considered software.
Simple or not, PKGBUILDs are scripts, and hence software. IMNSHO if you must apply a license to PKGBUILDs, it should be that of makepkg's OR the distribution's (for another distribution using makepkg and similar buildscripts they will have the copyright). Magnus Therming mentioned this on another thread, and I believe he makes a valid statement when he says the buildscripts are assumed to inherit GPL and so need no mention of it.
