Looks good, happy to approve once the functional tests are altered for 3.8

[Pierre-Sassoulas]

Thank you for the review. I wanted to validate the approach before committing to refactoring the functional tests. (wondered if you wanted to fix python 3.8). Should be mergeable now, What do you think about releasing 3.2.5 directly with only this ? It's a regression and there's a lot of traffic on #9751
