It does seem that the devguide does not give much guidance on this; I've opened 
an issue about it (https://github.com/python/devguide/issues/503).  But, in 
general, if the fix is potentially beneficial and does not add undue risk or an 
incompatibility, we would generally consider backporting it to the currently 
active maintenance branches; at the moment, that would be 3.8 (in beta phase) 
and 3.7 (maintenance nmode).  We have a lot of buildbot tests that show 
non-deterministic failures, some possibly due to concurrent.futures.  If there 
is a chance that this fix might mitigate those, I'd like to consider it for 
backporting.
