Message 58388 - Python tracker

The other leak comes from this code:

   s = ssl.wrap_socket(socket.socket(), ...)
   s.connect((SOME BOGUS ADDRESS OR SERVER))

The connect() fails, and the SSLSocket "s"gets dropped on the floor,
but never seems to be GC'd, (or the GC never seems to call the __del__
method).  Any idea why?

Could this be because the base class is a C class?
