I already asked upstream to replace the BSD license text with the ASL 2.0 one:
http://code.google.com/p/snappy/issues/detail?id=20&can=1

It's a known issue that has already been fixed in the SVN repo. This is also
true for the missing/incomplete copyright info in the source files.
Since the library is definitely licensed under ASL 2.0, I'd rather omit COPYING
for now and add it as soon as a new release of snappy is available.

Sure. Fixed.

Done.
