[pypy-dev] bug in socket.py in pypy3-5.8_beta

[zlists at ns.sympatico.ca]

(I'm sure somewhere there is a proper place to report a bug, but I
gave up after hunting for a few minutes.)

socket.py has the code

    import platform
        kern_version = tuple(map(int, platform.release().partition('-')[0].split('.')))

which is buggy, because the kernel version is not necessarily
completely numeric.  Check out CONFIG_LOCALVERSION in any kernel config.

Thanks.
