Charles-François Natali added the comment:

This test is inherently subject to a race condition:
"""
        port = support.find_unused_port()
        [...]
        try:
            self.assertRaises(OverflowError, sock.bind, (host, big_port))
            self.assertRaises(OverflowError, sock.bind, (host, neg_port))
            sock.bind((host, port))
        finally:
            sock.close()
"""

The buildbot being set up ton run the test suite with "-j4" is
probably the most important factor.

A possibility would be to try the find_unused_port() + bind() in a
loop a couple times.
