Figured it out. My shell had the COLUMNS environment variable set, and python
was inheriting it in os.environ. The failing test case assumes an 80-column
screen.
Anyway, looks like it has been fixed for 3.8 here:

New submission from wabba :
The test_help_with_metavar test appears to be broken.
It fails with an assertion error:
AssertionError: 'usag[55 chars]_name [-h] [--proxy
]\[113 chars]4>\n' != 'usag[55 chars]_name\n [-h]
[--prox
