The latest version of lxml introduced _difflib.py, which is taken (as the
comment on the top suggests) from Python 3.14 sources. The file mentions
no licensing information, thus appearing BSD Licensed like the rest of lxml
sources, but since it's from Python, I presume it should be PSF licensed?
Should the PSF License be mentioned in e.g. LICENSES.txt?

Right, I'll add a note. Thanks for mentioning it.

Obviously, users of Python cannot practically object to the terms of the
PSF-License, so this is mostly cosmetics for completeness…

That makes sense - although what about somebody using e.g. PyPy? That one
is licensed under MIT and not PSF license.
PyPy copies and reuses the largest part of the CPython stdlib, pretty much all Python modules, probably also including difflib.
