In arfile.ArMember, right?  Makes sense.  I guess that should be a 32nd
patch in this series, since it doesn't immediately fit into any of the
others.

I think those other failures indicate that you're missing the
python3-apt patch from #656288.  Could you make sure of that?  It'd be
good to ensure that this all tests out cleanly with 3.3.
