New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com>:

Disable the compilation of the built-in _abc module. For example, on Python 3.7 
apply the following patch:

Recompile Python, check:

$ ./python -c 'import _abc'
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_abc'

Run:

$ ./python -u -m test -R 3:3 test_functools -m test_mro_conflicts 

Error without _abc:

test test_functools crashed -- Traceback (most recent call last):

With built-in _abc module, regrtest is fine.

The problem comes from pure-Python reimplementation of abc._get_dump() in 
Lib/test/libregrtest/refleak.py:

    def _get_dump(cls):
        # For legacy Python version
        return (cls._abc_registry, cls._abc_cache,
                cls._abc_negative_cache, cls._abc_negative_cache_version)

The first item tuple must be a set of weak references. Currently, it's a weak 
set of strong references.

Attached PR fix the issue.
