This was discovered in the astropy test suite, where ThreadPoolExecutor is used to concurrently launch a lot of urllib.request.urlopen. This occurs when the URLs are local files; I'm not sure about other URL schemes.

The problem appears to occur in python 3.7 but not python 3.8 or python 3.6 (on a different machine).
