mitogen from Git master branch ( 89c0cc9)

Works without mitogen strategy. Error happens with Python 2 and 3 in the host (set through ansible_python_interpreter)

This will likely be fixed by #933 (since I see similar errors in the CI logs).

Yiou shouldn't have been able to even attempt it with ansible-core 2.13, using that revision. It should have been prevented by this code
