This looks like a broken install.  The socket objects
do have a recv_into() method in socketmodule.c.  Try "make
clean; make".  If it does not help, check where the _socket
module comes from with:

python2.5
>>> import _socket
>>> print _socket.__file__

and make sure that this file is among the ones you just
recompiled.
