PR 15075 should fix this issue. As mentioned in that PR I do have a question 
w.r.t. the exact shape of that patch: I currently reintroduce a "skipUnless" 
decorator that only runs this test on macOS, I could also introduce one that 
just disables the test on AIX as that's where the test fails.

P.S. According to this old developer works blog AIX has a very small default 
stack size for threads (like more BSD systems) and also has an API to change 
the size of those stacks.  It's probably worthwhile to add some code to 
thread_pthread.h to do this.
