[issue20611] socket.create_connection() doesn't handle EINTR properly

[tholzer]

tholzer added the comment:

No problem, I've attached a patch for socket.py for Python 2.7.3.

A few notes:

getaddrinfo (and gethostbyname, etc.) are already immune to this bug, so I've just fixed the connect() call.

The socket does need to be closed after EINTR, otherwise a EINPROGRESS might get returned on subsequent connect() calls.
