[issue18035] telnetlib incorrectly assumes that select.error has an errno attribute

[Gregory P. Smith]

New submission from Gregory P. Smith:

In Python 2.7.3 through 2.7.5 the telnetlib select.poll based implementation assumes that select.error has an errno attribute when handling errors.  it does not.  select.error is not an EnvironmentError derived exception.

http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/85c04fdaa404/Lib/telnetlib.py#l317

i haven't check 3.x yet.
