This error usually indicates that the bot got into some weird state. Python interpreter sometimes (very rarely) does that, we don't know exactly why.

The same bot ran the next task fine: https://chromium-swarm.appspot.com/task?id=40300f619beaef10 so it's probably OK for now. I'll watch it for a bit more, but otherwise it'll likely be a WontFix.
Another instance of it: https://crbug.com/843728#c9
Status: WontFix (was: Assigned)
The bot ran 4 tasks successfully after that one single failure: https://chromium-swarm.appspot.com/bot?id=swarm983-c4&sort_stats=total%3Adesc .
I don't think anything needs to be done.
