Thanks William for the information. I can reproduce this on 3.5.6. I was able 
to bisect this down to
#31852 that deals with similar cases and fixed with commit 
690c36f2f1085145d364a89bfed5944dd2470308.

$ cpython git:(master) git checkout 690c36f2f1085145d364a89bfed5944dd2470308
HEAD is now at 690c36f2f1 [3.6] bpo-31852: Fix segfault caused by using the 
async soft keyword (GH-4122)

It doesn't affect master, 3.7.0 and v3.6.4+ . Since 3.5 is in security mode and 
was not backported to 3.5 in the linked ticket. I propose to close this ticket 
and reopen a separate one with Larry added to it if the fix needs an explicit 
backport to 3.5.6 on priority.


Thanks
