Summary: HTTPConnection memory leak

Initial Comment:
This may be related to bugs 559117 and 592645.

I am using Python 2.2.1 (#34, 4/9/2002) on Windows 
2000 (5.00.2195, Service Pack 2).  Similar to bug 
559117, I see a steady increase of 4K in the size of the 
process after every 10 seconds or so.  Here's my test 
script:

import httplib
import time

for i in range(1000):
    conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.python.org")
    conn.request("GET", "/index.html")
    r1 = conn.getresponse()
    time.sleep(0.5)
    conn.close()

I can't duplicate this problem on Linux.  I used valgrind
too.  It's possible this problem was fixed.  

Mark, can you build the version from CVS and see if you
still have the problem?  I think there was a memory leak in
this area, but I'm not sure if it effected windows.  I
cannot test on windows.
