[New-bugs-announce] [issue24635] test_typing is flaky

[R. David Murray]

New submission from R. David Murray:

See for example:

http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/AMD64%20Windows8.1%20Non-Debug%203.x/builds/106

It might be a test order dependency, but see

http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/x86%20Ubuntu%20Shared%203.x/builds/11931

where the test passed when re-run at the end.

I'm making this a release blocker because it would be pretty sad to ship a new feature with a flaky test.  Larry can of course overrule me on that :)

I note that no one is yet listed as the subject expert for the typing module.  I've at least added a line for the module to experts.rst.
