Thanks for the elaboration.  Your report wasn't confusing.  The fact remains 
that we don't test or claim to support Python running under Docker on macOS.  
If someone wants to investigate further (and re-open this issue), they are 
welcome to but I personally have no interest in it.  Just taking a quick look 
at the Docker for Mac documentation indicates it implements its own file 
system, osxfs, with its own quirks.  So, if that is in use, it could very well 
be the source of the test failures.  I would think that running containers 
under Docker on macOS would be enough of a different animal that it would need 
to be considered a new platform with regard to Python support.  Unless someone 
steps up and wants to fully support such a configuration (which would mean a 
buildbot among other things), I don't think we want to go down that path.  
Sorry!
