That would be very handy, as there's a patch to add AF_IUCV support in
http://bugs.python.org/issue23830, which we don't currently have a way
to test upstream.

Neale suggested on that issue that the Linux Foundation might also be
able to help out with s390x access, but having multiple test systems
for any given architecture would be a good thing.

Cheers,
Nick.
