Exception when combining mock and queue

[robsan00]

Steps to reproduce

Call pylint pylint_err.py on the following script (more or less empty venv besides pylint and using Python 3.8.8):

from queue import Queue
from unittest.mock import MagicMock
mock = MagicMock(name="mock")

class Ham(mock.spam):
    def __init__(self):
        self.queue = Queue()

class SecondHam:
    def whatever(self):
        test_var = Ham()
        while not test_var.queue.empty():
            pass

venv:

(pylint_crash) C:\work>pip freeze
astroid==2.6.1
colorama==0.4.4
isort==5.9.1
lazy-object-proxy==1.6.0
mccabe==0.6.1
pylint==2.9.0
toml==0.10.2
wrapt==1.12.1

Python version:

(pylint_crash) C:\work>python --version
Python 3.8.8

no exception

pylint --version output

[Pierre-Sassoulas]

Thank you for opening the issue, this should be fixed after astroid 2.6.2 is released (if you force the installation of astroid 2.6.2) or in pylint 2.9.1. There's another problem currently and I'd like a review before merging the fix so it could be tomorrow.
