ARM64 macOS 3.x:

• Latest success: https://buildbot.python.org/#/builders/725/builds/13429
• First error: https://buildbot.python.org/#/builders/725/builds/13430

Start with Lib/test/test_ssl.py at BasicSocketTests.test_connect_ex and trace the reported call into Lib/ssl.py at _real_connect and connect_ex. Reproduce the test on the ARM64 macOS 3.x buildbot context, compare the successful and failing builds, and verify that test_connect_ex_error no longer hangs while the test_ssl run completes.
