The Tango icon library has been made public domain:. <http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library> A lot of other libraries used with FOSS software are licensed under Creative Commons which may require you to attribute the author, and share any modifications to the icons. LGPL libraries would have a similar limitation. Neither of these limitations would preclude commercial use IMO, especially if you distribute the icons as stand-alone resources.
