Here is a regression test and patch to close the socket reader when a HTTP server causes getresponse() to fail, for instance if the server times out and drops the connection without sending any response. Without the patch the socket will only be closed by the garbage collector at some arbitrary point.

Hi Serhiy, I submitted the form online on 22 Nov; just patiently waiting for it to come through now.

In the last few minutes I noticed an asterisk has appeared against my name on the bug tracker, so hopefully it is all good now.

Few notes about patches. Check patches for trailing spaces. And it would be more suitable if you provide single patch instead of a couple of patches. I have slightly changed the test, so it checks that the file is actually closed, not lost, The fix LGTM.

Thank you for your contribution Martin.
