no initial comment

gcc 10 will go soon into rawhide, however the toolchain team does weekly snapshots of Fedora before deploying the new compiler. Python hangs due to this issue which can then lead to big parts of the distro, down the dependency chain, not being testable.

push to https://github.com/fedora-python/cpython/tree/fedora-3.8 ?

Apart of that: the change LGTM. The change is already in 3.7, 3.8 and master branches upstream: https://bugs.python.org/issue38965 It's just a temporary practical solution until 3.8.1 becomes available.

3.8.1rc1 should contain the fix. Let's just update instead?
