I'd like to reopen this, as it doesn't seem to be a duplicate of #8084.
Specifically, test_getsitepackages in test_sitepackages appears to be wrong,
since it has a correct test for platform builds later in the method, but the
failure occurs earlier because the path "os.sep == '/'" is taken on OS X. The
test should be restructured as e.g.
if sys.platform in ('os2emx', 'riscos'):
# stuff for OS/2, RISCOS
elif (sys.platform == "darwin" and
sysconfig.get_config_var("PYTHONFRAMEWORK")):
# OS X platform builds
elif os.sep == '/':
# OS X non-platform builds, Linux, FreeBSD etc.
else:
# other platforms
That the test itself is broken is not the thrust of #8084.
