I'm starting to release 3.2.1 rc2 now. There are two stable buildbot failures that look legitimate

I suppose that one of the failure was the issue #12467. The following commit fixed it in the 3.2 branch:

New changeset ac18e70cbe7e by Victor Stinner in branch '3.2': Issue #12467: warnings: fix a race condition if a warning is emitted at http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/ac18e70cbe7e

And I suppose that the second failure is the issue #12440. According to Antoine Pitrou, it's a problem specific to the buildbot, not a bug in Python (see his comment on the issue).

It would be nice to have issue #12411 fixed in 3.2.1, but it's not a must-have. I just read somewhere that some people are using the cgi module to do modern web things like WSGI. I don't know if they use the cgi multipart parser (apparently not because the issue was only reported few days ago?). I didn't have time to review the patch.

Do you think that it is a really blocker or not?

Hi all,

I'm starting to release 3.2.1 rc2 now. There are two stable buildbot failures that look legitimate; if anyone feels like helping find out how to fix them join me in #python-dev, otherwise we'll get this handled in time for final.

OK, now this release is out the door, I'll not merge the main 3.2 branch into the release clone (hg.python.org/releasing/3.2.1) anymore. (I will merge the release clone into the main repo though, to make the rc2 tag available there.)

IOW: Commit to 3.2 what you like (well, bugfixes only), but it won't make 3.2.1 unless it's a critical fix and you notify me of it.
