Extract of the test code:

    def test_traversal(self):
        self.nb.pack()
        self.nb.wait_visibility()

        self.nb.select(0)

        simulate_mouse_click(self.nb, 5, 5)
        self.nb.focus_force()
        self.nb.event_generate('<Control-Tab>')
        self.assertEqual(self.nb.select(), str(self.child2))  # <~~~ HERE
        self.nb.focus_force()
        self.nb.event_generate('<Shift-Control-Tab>')
        self.assertEqual(self.nb.select(), str(self.child1))

My guess is that the failure is in event_generate(key), as in #36286.  If so, this is a duplicate of the latter.

How often have you seen a failure?  For event_generate('<Key-Down>'), etc, the failure time in my test script varies from 1000 to 100_000 tries and there have been no build-bot failures reported to me.

Now that I can make the failure happen, I still need to experiment with trying to stop it.

Recent failure:

The Buildbot has detected a failed build on builder AMD64 Windows8.1 Refleaks 2.7 while building Python.
Full details are available at:
    https://buildbot.python.org/all/#builders/33/builds/726

I didn't see the failure recently, I close it.

Moreover, Python 2 is not longer supported.
