Right now (in svn trunk) httplib, ftplib, telnetlib, etc, has a timeout
argument.

If you use it, the socket timeout will be set (through s.settimeout()).
What behaviour has the socket after setting it the timeout, is beyond of
these changes, though.

BTW, I still need to make the final step here, that is adding a timeout
argument to urllib2.urlopen().
