[issue29048] Coverage influence tests, make some of them fail

[Ned Batchelder]

Ned Batchelder added the comment:

I don't believe this is coverage.py's fault, so I don't have an answer to your question.  There is no revision of coverage.py that *does* swallow stderr.  Also, as you can see from the test output, it isn't swallowed, it's not being captured where it should be captured, but it is appearing on the terminal.  I see more than 60 uses of captured_stderr in the Python test suite. If coverage.py were swallowing stderr, I would expect dozens of test failures.  The problem is more subtle.

If you want, you can bisect against any revision of coverage.py you like, perhaps the released 4.2?
