[issue35773] test_bdb fails on AIX bot (regression)

[Michael Felt]

Michael Felt <aixtools at felt.demon.nl> added the comment:

Some record keeping - to keep track of when this regression first appeared on the bot:

buildername	POWER6 AIX 3.x	Builder
buildnumber	718	Build
codebase		Build
event	push	Change
github_distinct	true	Change
got_revision	a37f52436f9aa4b9292878b72f3ff1480e2606c3	Git
owners	["Christian Heimes <christian at python.org>"]	Build
project	python/cpython	Build
repository	https://github.com/python/cpython	Build
revision	a37f52436f9aa4b9292878b72f3ff1480e2606c3	Build
scheduler	3.x	Scheduler

And the last build without this error:
buildnumber	717	Build
codebase		Build
event	push	Change
github_distinct	true	Change
got_revision	c9f872b0bdce5888f1879fa74e098bf4a05430c5	Git
owners	["Victor Stinner <vstinner at redhat.com>"]	Build
project	python/cpython	Build
repository	https://github.com/python/cpython	Build
revision	c9f872b0bdce5888f1879fa74e098bf4a05430c5	Build
scheduler	3.x	Scheduler

I am hoping, with this info - someone who understands the commit process better than I can help me see the difference between these two builds.

I have tried

git diff c9f872b0bdce5888f1879fa74e098bf4a05430c5  a37f52436f9aa4b9292878b72f3ff1480e2606c3

And this only seems to be a change in something related to ssl (bpo-35746) - so I am not really understanding what (else) has happened.

The behavior seems to be language handling related, and not really bdb or ssl which is where the test and git diff points at.

Ideas and/or suggestions welcome.

(p.s., no longer showing as a bot error as I have changed my LANG setting)
