Comment (by cjerdonek):
I narrowed this down further to the following:
The hang happens when calling `urllib.request.urlopen()` inside
`LiveServerBase`. And digging further, inside CPython's request.py, the
hang happens when calling `_scproxy._get_proxies()`.
There seem to be known issues around `_scproxy` in CPython for Mac OS X
users. For example, see the following two issues in CPython's bug
tracker:
(1) Apple-supplied libsqlite3 on OS X is not fork safe; can cause
crashes:
http://bugs.python.org/issue27126
(See this comment, in particular:
http://bugs.python.org/issue27126#msg266405 )
(2) exception error in _scproxy.so when called after fork
http://bugs.python.org/issue13829
There is a chance that there are easy workarounds on the Django side that
can be made to accommodate Mac OS X users.
Also, for the record I'm using 10.11.6.
