Summary: setting socket timeout crashes SSL?

Initial Comment:
First: bravo for compiling SSL support in the 2.3 binaries!

I can connect fine to a secure web server using HTTPS.
 However, when I set a socket default timeout, I get
errors:

import socket
socket.setdefaulttimeout(30.0)
import urllib
f =
urllib.urlopen('https://members.tufts-health.com/memindex.html')
print f.read()
===================
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "testssl.py", line 9, in ?
    f =
urllib.urlopen('https://members.tufts-health.com/memindex.html')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/urllib.py", line 76, in urlopen
    return opener.open(url)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/urllib.py", line 181, in open
    return getattr(self, name)(url)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/urllib.py", line 375, in
open_https
    h.endheaders()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 695, in
endheaders
    self._send_output()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 581, in
_send_output
    self.send(msg)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 548, in send
    self.connect()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 945, in
connect
    ssl = socket.ssl(realsock, self.key_file,
self.cert_file)
socket.sslerror: (2, 'The operation did not complete
(read)')
===================
This is on Linux; similar behaviour on Win2K.

This bug has resurfaced in Python 2.4. 

The exact same code as in the original bug report gives the 
same error. I also tried using urllib2 and it gives the same 
result. 

I have tried this only on Windows (both XP professional SP2, 
and Windows Server 2003).

I am unable to re-open this bug report so should I just file a 
new one?
Thanks!

The patch was checked in, so I'm closing this bug.  Please
re-open if there are any problems.

This is fixed by patch 676472 so when that patch is checked
in, this bug can be closed.
