I’d suggest to rename the directory to libyaml (to separate it from possible *.c files that are not part of libyaml) and copy their LICENSE file to libyaml/LICENSE. Additionally, you should add “(c) 2006 Kirill Simonov” in the copyright field of the *.cabal file and mention in the description that “the full C library” is “libyaml v0.1.2 by Kirill Simonov <http://pyyaml.org/wiki/LibYAML>“, to give proper credit here. Also, if you do any changes to the .c files, it would be nice to have them documented somewhere, e.g. a README-libyaml in the top level directory. This would make it easier for distro package maintainers to decide whether the regular libyaml library can be used or whether the embedded copy has to be used.
