[issue28884] Python 3.5.2 non-segfaulting bugs (from PyPy)

Armin Rigo added the comment:

(B2) fcntl.ioctl(x, y, buf, mutate_flag): mutate_flag is there for the case
  of buf being a read-write buffer, which is then mutated in-place.
  But if we call with a read-only buffer, mutate_flag is ignored (instead
  of rejecting a True value)---ioctl(x, y, "foo", True) will not actually
  mutate the string "foo", but the True is completely ignored.  (I think
  this is a bug introduced during the Argument Clinic refactoring.)
