Ronald Oussoren added the comment:

the test does get run with 'make buildbottest', and then fails with a 
ValueError exception:

That might be a bug in libcurses on OSX, I haven't tested with a separate 
install of libcurses yet.

BTW. The patch mentioned in Issue12669 looks slightly bogus: as buildbot is a 
daemon it might not even have a controlling tty. With some luck a proper fix 
will require the explicit use of a pseudo-tty.
