[issue19521] Parallel build race condition on AIX since python-2.7

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah <stefan at bytereef.org> added the comment:

I have been asked to backport this to 3.8. There's a very small window
of opportunity:

3.8.6: Monday, 2020-09-21
3.8.7rc1: Monday, 2020-11-02
3.8.7: Monday, 2020-11-16     (final version!)


Backporting procedures since 3.8 are unclear and a source of
constant friction, so most core developers seem to have stopped
doing any backports at all.  It is not a battle I'll choose, but
if you get a second core dev to review this trivial patch I'll
commit it.

There's a simple solution for 3.8: Do not use the parallel build,
the regular build takes around 4 min.


For the buildbots you can ask the operator for a custom command
line.
