New submission from Brian Curtin <br...@python.org>: I'm currently trying to run my `tox` testing environment—all of which runs under `coverage`—against 3.10b3 and am running into some trouble. I initially thought it was something about tox or coverage, but it looks lower level than that as the venv script in the stdlib isn't working. I'm not actually sure if the direct problem I'm experiencing is the same as what I'm listing below, but it reproduces the same result:
