[New-bugs-announce] [issue39027] run_coroutine_threadsafe uses wrong TimeoutError

[janust]

New submission from janust <ysangkok at gmail.com>:

https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe has a code example that catches a asyncio.TimeoutError from run_coroutine_threadsafe. In Python 3.7, this exception was equal to concurrent.futures.TimeoutError, but since https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/431b540bf79f0982559b1b0e420b1b085f667bb7 that is not the case anymore.
