> Can we backport this to 3.7 at least?

My policy is to focus on the master branch to support a new platform. Then add a buildbot and find a core developer to maintain this platform. See the PEP 11 for details.

I would prefer to see a full test suite passing before discussing which changes should or should not be backported.

I would also prefer to first see a more general discussion about who is going to support HP-UX.

IMHO HP-UX is not officially supported today. My list of supported platforms:
https://pythondev.readthedocs.io/cpython.html#supported-platforms

See the test_utf8_mode now pass on HP-UX, I close the issue. Please open more specific issues for other failures. You might open a meta issue to track all HP-UX issues.
