This buildbot has been failing for a long time (example failure https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/40/builds/3291) since https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/4267c989e7fc6cd528e8a1d04a07fac5cca85ec7:

======================================================================

Can someone try to fix the error, otherwise we would  need to revert commit 4267c989e7fc6cd528e8a1d04a07fac5cca85ec7.
