[New-bugs-announce] [issue27614] Race in test_docxmlrpc.py

[earl.chew]

New submission from earl.chew:

The test test_docxmlrpc.py will sometimes hang because of a timing race.

I've verified that this code is the same up to version 3.5 and master at https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/test/test_docxmlrpc.py

A proposed patch is attached.
