[issue3066] FD leak in urllib2

[Bohdan Vlasyuk]

Bohdan Vlasyuk <bohdan at google.com> added the comment:

The list is not the problem. The problem is the other reference, from
"<socket._fileobject object at 0xf7d42c34>".

Also note that the workaround (u.fp.recv = None) removes the second
reference.

This is fine (at least in CPython), because the socket is destroyed when the
refcount reaches zero, thus calling the finalizer.
