	Oh, one thing I just thought of... If you want to try tracking
this down, It might help to know that the socket object's 'makefile '
method is equivilent to this function:

def makefile(sock,mode='r',bufsize=-1):
    fd_sock=sock.fileno() 
    fd=os.dup(fd_sock)
    sockfile=os.fdopen(fd,mode,bufsize)
    return sockfile

This might tell you something more..
