Quick update a few days later. (...) Except Windows 7 which has issues with testasyncio and multiprocessing tests because this buildbot is slow, it seems like most CIs are now stable.

The bug wasn't specific to this buildbot, it was a very old race condition in the Windows ProactorEventLoop which only started recently to trigger test_asyncio failures. See https://bugs.python.org/issue33694 for the details.

Known issues:

* PPC64 Fedora 3.x, PPC64LE Fedora 3.x, s390x RHEL 3.x: https://bugs.python.org/issue33630 * AIX: always red * USBan: experimental buildbot * Alpine: platform not supported yet (musl issues)

Except of these few CIs, the main issue was test__xxsubinterpreters which is known to crash: https://bugs.python.org/issue33615

To fix CIs and give more time to Eric Snow to look at this crash, I decided to skip test__xxsubinterpreters. You may want to offer help to Eric to look into these tricky issues.

So again, except of the few known issues listed above, all other CIs (Travis CI, AppVeyor, all other buildbots) should now pass.
