[issue19838] test.test_pathlib.PosixPathTest.test_touch_common fails on FreeBSD with ZFS

Sorry to have such an awful configuration, but this approach won't fix the problem for me.

I use a Linux "encrypted home directory", which uses crazy loopback mount logic to create an on-the-fly decrypted representation of my home directory.  So my home directory is actually on an "ecryptfs" device:

    % df -T
    Filesystem            Type      Mounted on
    ...
    home                  zfs       /home
    /home/larry/.Private  ecryptfs  /home/larry

Maybe we could ignore deltas below a certain race-condition threshold?  Perhaps a millisecond?  I think there are already tests like that.
