Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org> added the comment:

Fixed in trunk (2.7) r69156.

All places in socketmodule that called htons and silently truncated
values that were too large have been changed to raise OverflowError. 
Unit tests included.

I'm leaving this open until it is merged into the py3k branch for 3.1.
