I started to hit this bug myself when I try to run TB's xpcshell-tests  (I use Debian. )
It took me a while to update my local patches to work with the recent directory layout change.

Funny, though, I could successfully run xpcshell-test of TB on June 16 and June 22.
I check mochitest more often and so didn't realize this bug has crept in.

What has changed?

my system python seems to be version 2 variety.
```
ishikawa@ip030:/NREF-COMM-CENTRAL/mozilla$ which python
/usr/bin/python
ishikawa@ip030:/NREF-COMM-CENTRAL/mozilla$ python --version
Python 2.7.18
```
whereas TB build process uses
```
 checking for Python 3... /NEW-SSD/moz-obj-dir/objdir-tb3/_virtualenvs/init_py3/bin/python (3.8.5)
```
But I just checked that python version 2 variety system binary is used for invoking xpcshell test locally.

Hmm. So maybe python2 vs python3 thingy as noted by some comments in the patch in 1622789/

Any idea when Ben's patch is installed soon?

TIA
