[issue9281] Race condition in distutils.dir_util.mkpath()

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

Note: Your patch fixes distutils, but in distutils2 dir_util is gone, use of its functions replaced by shutil calls or duplicated code with, I’m afraid, the same isdir/mkdir race condition. I wonder how we could add tests for that instead. Thanks for the heads-up, I’m adding a “grep makedirs|rmdir” on my todo list.
