I think it would be better to write this as a comment rather than a docstring. If you want, add a one-line docstring, but most test methods don't have docstrings.

that does not change once the release reaches candidate status.

Once a release reaches candidate status, the value of the constant
EXPECTED_MAGIC_NUMBER in this test should be changed.
This test will then check that the actual MAGIC_NUMBER matches
the expected value for the release.

In exceptional cases, it may be required to change the MAGIC_NUMBER
for a maintenance release. In this case the change should be
discussed in python-dev. If a change is required, community
stakeholders such as OS package maintainers must be notified
in advance. Such exceptional releases will then require an
adjustment to this test case.

Wouldn't be better to use a multiline string literal if you want such verbose error message?

But I think that "broken *.pyc files compatibility" would be enough.

Then you'd have to dedent it, etc. This message is perfectly legible to me.

"files that can't be automatically regenerated by the current "
"user, candidate and final releases require the current "
"importlib.util.MAGIC_NUMBER to match the expected "
"magic number in this test. Set the expected "
"magic number in this test to the current MAGIC_NUMBER to "
"continue with the release.\n\n"
"Changing the MAGIC_NUMBER for a maintenance release "
"requires discussion in python-dev and notification of "
"community stakeholders."

self.assertEqual(EXPECTED_MAGIC_NUMBER, actual, msg)
