    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):

    TypeError: Can only register classes

    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.
