[issue29514] Add a test case that prevents magic number changes in minor releases

[Petr Viktorin]

Petr Viktorin added the comment:

According to issue27286, Ubuntu 16.04LTS has the fix and uses the new magic number. (And this is one reason undoing the change in CPython is out of the question.)


The patch Nick mentioned is brewing at https://github.com/encukou/cpython/commit/magic-number-workaround .
