Has anyone confirmed that this bug actually exists? I'm afraid that I cannot verify it. I get these results on three different computers:

py> x = 8.988465674311579e+307
py> statistics.mean([x, x])
8.988465674311579e+307
py> statistics.mean([x, x]) == x
True

running Python 3.4.3, a backport on 3.3.0rc3, and the default branch in the repo (3.6.0a).
