[issue19293] test_asyncio failures on AIX

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum added the comment:

Thanks for the investigation and the patch.

As to the deeper issue, I'm not sure I understand what's going on -- is this a bug in Python or in AIX?  Is there a better work-around than disabling the test?  The issue 18238 that you mention seems to be closed by disabling tests too, but that seems unsatisfactory.

Is the real issue that select() and poll() on AIX cannot be interrupted by signals?  That sounds really sad.
