Personally, I can't apply it as-is right now, since a) I would have to check that the test case conditionalization works fine, and b) I would have to come up with a patch for the Windows build process.

Sorry, I couldn't understand the second point. Why would you have to patch the Windows build process?

If you want to prioritize it over the other 300 patches, I can offer you a fast-track procedure if you in turn review 5 other patches.

Well, it's not really my place to ask that this patch is prioritised above others, since as I said if I'm asking for its inclusion it is in order to benefit other Python users who may easily hit the same problem. As far as I'm concerned personally, I have no problem at all applying the patch manually.

Anyway, I'm intrigued about this "review 5 other patches" procedure you suggest. What exactly would be involved in such a review? Please note that I hadn't touched CPython code before I wrote my patch and I haven't been following CPython development closely.
