test_compat.py fails on MacOS and python 3.8+

[lamdor]

This is something that we started see in Nix when we enabled tests as part of the build: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/154280

We think it might be due to spawn/fork changes in python 3.8, since it does succeed in python 3.7. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/154280#issuecomment-1017180226 (ht to @thefloweringash for finding that)
