I've been looking into the brain errors. Will open a PR to fix them later today.

Rebased the PR and fixed the remaining two test cases. Just wondering if we need to split the as_string case.
On my machine (macOS ARM) I'm also seeing outright Python crashes for two test cases. The CI run seems to be fine though.?

Both are already ignored for PyPy. When I run them locally, Python crashes with Abort trap: 6

• tests/test_inference.py::InferenceTest::test_no_infinite_ancestor_loop
• tests/test_inference.py::test_recursion_on_inference_tip

Also seeing a crash for one pylint test

• tests/test_functional.py::test_functional[regression_5408]

Just wondering if we need to split the as_string case.

I was trying to keep the return in finally for python < 3.14 but it's near impossible (very hard as we have 188 tests using it, we can't remove them all for python 3.14). Probably not something we're going to break by mistake, so probably safe to skip.

My current guess with the last issue is either a fail of pytest under windows and python 3.14 or a cache issue on our side.

Added backport label because we'll need 3.14 compat for pylint faster than we can properly release 4.0.0.

Maybe worth kicking this around in the discord #release-planning channel?

I could also envision us committing to spending our limited effort between now and October 1 on nothing but 3.14 compat (and optionally, possibly the simplest MVP of pylint-dev/pylint#3512) and releasing 4.0 by October 1. I think we should ship the new features people have contributed without waiting for too much else.
