[issue43921] test_ssl fails on Windows buildbots

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower <steve.dower at python.org> added the comment:

I can't reproduce these on my own (Windows) machine either.

Looking at the output, I think the tests are just going to be inherently flakey. It's not testing the specific scenario directly enough, and relying heavily on implicit synchronization.

We probably just need a different approach to testing these. I think at the very least starting the server on the main test thread and using a helper to send the request is going to be easier to keep things in sync. 

But that's not going to be done in time to unblock. Skipping the test seems like an okay compromise.
