I close my bpo-46651 as a duplicate of this issue. Copy of my message.

test_urllib2.test_issue16464() fails randomly.

It uses http://www.example.com/ server.

Instead, I proposed to use http://httpbin.org/post URL which is written to support HTTP POST.

$ ./python -m test test_urllib2 -u all -v -m test_issue16464
