Possibly -- it would make sense as Christos Zoulas is the original author
and has been actively maintaining it since conception.  Other than the
jilles added in the past year, we haven't really made much creative
changes to it since 4.4BSD.

But we have made a lot of changes to it over the years.  Many of our
"syncs" just took snippets from NetBSD -- right now
'svn diff ^/vendor/NetBSD/libedit/dist ^/head/lib/libedit | wc -l'
reports 12717 lines; or "51 files changed, 871 insertions, 2113
deletions, 3382 modifications" according to diffstat(1).

So maybe hold the question until the diff is smaller??
