Yes, it should be lxml not PyXML. The link could be upgraded as well as 
http://codespeak.net/lxml/ redirects to http://lxml.de/ .
I also found mention of PyXML in tools/python/logging/logging-0.4.9.2/ in 
the files README.txt, python_logging.html, and test/logrecv.py (in an 
error message) as a dependency for ZSI though I don't think xen ever uses 
the code.
