In FTP.makeport() a socket error catched and saved but then raised a new error with saved error as argument.

Here is a patch which reraises an original error.

Why did you replace socket.error with OSError?
I think we should use socket.create_connection() as a guide line:
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/45dfb657b430/Lib/socket.py#l401
A patch is in attachment.

socket.error is alias to OSError since 3.3 (PEP 3151). For versions < 3.3 socket.error should be preserved.

I agree that copying a code from socket.create_connection() is a good idea. Modernizing socket.error to OSError can be done in a separated issue.

I doubt about the committed variant of patch. Note that both my original patch and socket.create_connection() use intermediate variable for catching an exception. This is done deliberately.

Example:

>>> err = None
>>> try: raise ValueError
... except ValueError as err: pass
... 
>>> err
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'err' is not defined
