I believe there will be a problem with the patch committed in r68532. If getresponse(buffering=True) is called, extra data on the socket may be consumed by the socket.makefile() buffer which will cause problems if the connection is not closed immediately after this response. I mentioned this in comments on http://bugs.python.org/issue2576 which happens to have a way of fixing this already proposed as they are trying to solve an almost identical issue to this without yet having seen this issue.
