I should have pointed out that my secondary problem was a mercurial dependency on the urllib patch. I just wanted Mercurial users to get a complete fix. I figure they will be looking for a fix in the python bug report, and need to be told the fix won't work for them.

AndrewTrick: I am assuming your last comment is more relevant to
mercurial's use of the set_tunnel, the facility provided by the patch,
that is solving the issue for you. You had earlier pointed out
mercurial's dependency upon this issue too.

The fix as such stands good and may not require any change. Is my
understanding OK?
