to be honest, I don't recall exactly given it's been 2 and a half years since 
the original report with no activity.

if I recall correctly, this was encountered while upgrading the `mock` backport 
in yelp's monolithic repository.

I want to say the reason this was hard to "fix" properly was due to some 
blanket patches being applied in a base test case and then other test cases 
re-patching those methods to add more specific behaviour.  This worked fine in 
python2.7 and all the way until python3.3 but then was broken by changes in 
python3.4

Fortunately, they've been fixed in python3.7.  I guess I've been encouraged to 
write a patch with a test so it does not regress in the future
