[Python-bugs-list] TCP_NODELAY not found in socketmodule (PR#182)

I wanted to use the TCP_NODELAY socket option, but it wasn't found in the
socket
module, even though socketmodule.c contains:
#ifdef	TCP_NODELAY
	insint(d, "TCP_NODELAY", TCP_NODELAY);
#endif

"man tcp" on Solaris says that TCP_NODELAY is defined in netinet/tcp.h,
and the Open Groups Unix98 spec agrees
(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009619199/ninettcp.htm).
socketmodule.c doesn't include that header file.

Fix: #include <netinet/tcp.h> in socketmodule.c.  
But are there Unix platforms which don't 
have that header, and will break?  (Perhaps the configure script 
could check for it.)
