asyncio does not support python 2.7, and the syntax in question wasn't added until python 3.3.

Heh indeed, my surprise and concern is that known-broken modules are installed. Please feel free to close the bug if you don't think it's an issue.
Comment 3 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis 2016-10-25 20:24:31 UTC
Upstream fixed it in pyzmq 15.4.0 by not installing these modules for older versions of Python:
https://github.com/zeromq/pyzmq/commit/2670e9a1ddd6dc1f83878bc936e18aaea3f50170

(The newest available version is 16.0.0.)

This should not block the stablereq; just don't import that module on python2.7.
