Two other comments on socket.close() in Python 2.3.
In addition, the socket.close() method in the Lib/socket.py
class does not even call the _realsocket.close() method.
Before zapping the _sock attribute, shouldn't the latter
close() method be called first? If not, what happens to
any data which may be buffered by the _realsocket?
Also, every time the socket.close() method is called
another, new instance of the _closedsocket class is
created. That seems unnecessary waste.
Why not use a single instance created once at the
module level?
