In the Django ticket I mentioned in my comment above, one of the commenters said, "Just ran the tests at the mentioned commit on my macOS Sierra public beta with a fresh 3.5.2 python environment. No problems there."

(https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/27086#comment:4 )

In other words, the issue that affected me on Mac OS X El Capitan (whose root cause is this issue I believe) wasn't present in Sierra.

Do you think this means Apple has addressed the issue in the next version of its OS?
