It appears that somewhere between Python 2.5 and Python 2.6, some socket constants were lost in Windows builds. Python 2.6.2 (r262:71605, Apr 14 2009, 22:46:50) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import socket; socket.IPPROTO_IPV6 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'IPPROTO_IPV6' Confirmed this problem on 32-bit builds and Python 3.1.1 also. I suspect the compiler upgrade influenced this behavior. Let me know if I can help track down the issue.
