Comment:
Minor change:  instead of saying that allow_reuse_address defaults to \code{1}, just say that it defaults to true.  That re-inforces that this is a boolean, not an integer which may be interpreted differently for, say, 2.

Just make the change and check it in; no need to iterate here.

Moshe, you can go ahead and check in the code change.  Fred will approve the doc change ASAP.

Comment:
I've changed it as per Guido's comment. I've also added 
documentation of this undocumented feature...
Assigning to Fred, so he can have a look at the doco
changes. Guido already approved the intent, so this 
is the only thing stopping it.

Comment:
Following a discussion on #python, there was a consensus there that it's a pain SocketServer.py doesn't reuse addresses.

Comment:
Right idea, wrong implementation.

Instead of this, set allow_reuse_address to 1; it's a class variable currently set to 0.  Then server_bind() already does the setsockopt().
