Discussed with David Murray at PyCon Sprints 2015.
Considered the fact that to preserve backwards compatibility, it seems 
important that rather than
a) merely checking for the presence of each constant string (as the test does 
now) OR
b) checking for each desired character (regardless of order) as noted in 
msg221766

the tests should check for the exact strings that have historically been 
published in Python. Doing so seems to be the right path to ensure that:
a) the strings exist AND
b) the strings have not inadvertently changed.
