This is undoubtedly the right answer for someone wanting to *use* code

When one signs up to contribute code to the PSF, one is asked to write
onĀ contributed software that it has been "Licensed to the PSF under a
Contributor Agreement" (see
https://www.python.org/psf/contrib/contrib-form/). The XXX comment may
signal an intention to return and insert such words.
The form says specifically "adjacent to Contributor's valid copyright
notice". *If* the contribution comes with a separate explicit copyright
notice (most do not), then it should be followed by the contribution notice.
ossaudiodev.c has 3 copyright notices, the last being by PSF in 2002,
long before he current Contributor Agreement, and apparently never
challenged. Hence Guido's claim that the module is covered by the
general PSF license.
