New submission from Gregory Szorc <gregory.sz...@gmail.com>:

The Modules/_ctypes/libffi_msvc/ffi.h and 
Modules/_ctypes/libffi_osx/include/ffi.h files in the CPython repository 
contain copies of libffi.

On at least the official Windows distributions, the LICENSE.txt does not 
contain libffi's license text from these files. This is seemingly in violation 
of libffi's license agreement, which clearly says "The above copyright notice 
and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial 
portions of the Software."
