R. David Murray added the comment:

Yes the point is to test compilation of the path.  If I run python3 -m 
compilelall on my installed python, it works fine (zero return code).  I can't 
really investigate this further right now, but it isn't obvious to me what the 
answer is from the information in the issue so far, except that it doesn't 
*look* like it should be necessary to skip the tests unless the installation 
directories are read only *and* the .pyc files in them are non-existent or out 
of date.
