For the record, this reproduces perfectly well in local QEMU:

  adt-run --apt-pocket=proposed -U -s --testname testsuite python3.4 --- qemu /srv/vm/adt-trusty-amd64-cloud.img

so this is not specific to the production CI environment. -s starts a shell after failure; after that the failure can be reproduced more quickly and directly:

$ python3.4 -W default -bb -E -R -m test -j 1 -w -uall,-network,-urlfetch,-gui test.test_socket

However, downgrading the packages to 3.4.3-1ubuntu1~14.04.1 fails on the exact same issue. So this indeed does not look like a regression in python3.4 itself but in one of its underlying libraries or perhaps a changed kernel.
