Dear Python Bugs Team,

Some tests fail when building Python 3.8 on Guix, for instance :

```
FAIL: test_shared_memory_SharedMemoryServer_ignores_sigint (test.test_multiprocessing_spawn.WithProcessesTestSharedMemory)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/guix-build-python-3.8.0.drv-0/Python-3.8.0/Lib/test/_test_multiprocessing.py", line 3824, in test_shared_memory_SharedMemoryServer_ignores_sigint
    os.kill(os.getpid(), signal.SIGINT)
AssertionError: KeyboardInterrupt not raised
```

This is because, on Guix, there is no TTY available during the build process.
A patch (cf attachment) has been added to the package definition [1], but it would make sense to have it integrated in Python.

[1]: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=38208#14

It adds the following decorator to the failing tests:

```
@unittest.skipUnless(sys.stdin.isatty(), "KeyboardInterrupts require a TTY device")
```
