Ned Deily added the comment: Ah, setting PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE explains it. When running the tests via "make test", python is invoked with -E to avoid issues like that. But here's a patch that skips test_timestamp_overflow if bytecode files cannot be written (Issue20796 documents a similar problem and workaround for test_import).
