I don't see why this cannot wait until 3.4.1.

True, rounding away from zero is desirable in these cases but it seems like this should be a non issue most of the time and any distro (ubuntu) that picks up 3.4.0 can apply this fix to their own python package if they ever find this causing an actual problem.

It was never explained in the original #20320 why anything considers it sane to call a selector with a non-zero microscopic timeout in the first place and expect well defined behavior. IMNSHO desiring any timeout less than a millisecond is asking for trouble from a variety of OS APIs.
