[issue3972] Add Option to Bind to a Local IP Address in httplib.py

[Gregory P. Smith]

Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org> added the comment:

This is useful but as its a feature we won't be able to add it until
2.7/3.1.  Assigning to me to make sure it happens.

Until then, the approach I suggest is to subclass httplib.HTTPConnection
and HTTPSConnection to add your own variants that do bind before connecting.
