This is a known issue in IronPython.  You can work around it by using
Seo's implementation of the socket module.  If you're not already
using it, download "IronPython Community Edition" from
http://fepy.sourceforge.net.  Then to replace the built-in socket
module, you'll need to do something like this:

import os, sys, imp
sys.modules['socket'] = module = imp.new_module('socket')
execfile('..\\lib\\socket.py', module.__dict__)
import xmlrpclib
server = xmlrpclib.Server('http://localhost:4567')
month = server.getMonth(2002, 8)

I've tested this and it works.
