[issue30181] Incorrect parsing of test case docstring

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Considering that in the cpython test suite we avoid using docstrings in unittests because of this "feature" of unittest, I doubt anyone on the core team is going to be motivated to fix this :)  That doesn't mean we won't accept a PR, but if we do we would only put it in 3.7 because it is a visible behavior change, and there are tools that parse unittest output.
