Duplicate of #27399.

A work-around is to install Pillow from source instead of a wheel:

pip install --no-binary Pillow -r tests/requirements/py3.txt

This is actually a different issue, sorry. It might be related to #27399 though.

I cannot reproduce this issue on the current master (a492ccf0bc3da0b99c27b44e491ec3d6aabd5d3f). Moreover Python 3.5 is no longer supported.

Closing unless someone can provide a clear path to reproduce this issue.
