the os.statvfs() function doesn't return f_fsid.  The POSIX definition of statvfs() has f_fsid:

The doc string for the result object, and the main Python 2 documentation, both say that the result is a 10-tuple. So perhaps any new field should only be an attribute, and the tuple should stay the same size, to maintain compatibility. This was done in other cases, e.g. struct_time and stat_result.

I think Giuseppe's patch is good, but there's a Windows failure on AppVeyor, so I'm a little wary. It doesn't look related, but I haven't looked at Python on Windows since... 2001, maybe?
