[issue8095] test_urllib2 crashes on OS X 10.3 attempting to retrieve network proxy configuration

OK, I tried the patch.  Reversing the default sense causes the proxy tests in test_urllib2 to fail on 10.6 et al.  So I changed the sense of the tests in the patch to match previous behavior; the modified patch is attached.  Unfortunately, it didn't help on 10.3; test_urllib2 still gets a bus error:

Exception:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes:      KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000
