First: bravo for compiling SSL support in the 2.3 binaries!

I can connect fine to a secure web server using HTTPS.
 However, when I set a socket default timeout, I get
errors:

import socket
socket.setdefaulttimeout(30.0)
import urllib
f =
urllib.urlopen('https://members.tufts-health.com/memindex.html')
print f.read()
===================
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "testssl.py", line 9, in ?
    f =
urllib.urlopen('https://members.tufts-health.com/memindex.html')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/urllib.py", line 76, in urlopen
    return opener.open(url)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/urllib.py", line 181, in open
    return getattr(self, name)(url)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/urllib.py", line 375, in
open_https
    h.endheaders()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 695, in
endheaders
    self._send_output()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 581, in
_send_output
    self.send(msg)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 548, in send
    self.connect()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/httplib.py", line 945, in
connect
    ssl = socket.ssl(realsock, self.key_file,
self.cert_file)
socket.sslerror: (2, 'The operation did not complete
(read)')
===================
This is on Linux; similar behaviour on Win2K.

This is fixed by patch 676472 so when that patch is checked
in, this bug can be closed.

The patch was checked in, so I'm closing this bug.  Please
re-open if there are any problems.

This bug has resurfaced in Python 2.4. 

The exact same code as in the original bug report gives the 
same error. I also tried using urllib2 and it gives the same 
result. 

I have tried this only on Windows (both XP professional SP2, 
and Windows Server 2003).

I am unable to re-open this bug report so should I just file a 
new one?
Thanks!
