Duh, I managed to misread both the comment and the code :-) What my subconscious refused to admit is the fact that on Windows, SO_REUSEADDR allows you to bind to any port - even though the other application didn't set SO_REUSEADDR on its socket - which is a security nightmare. Anyway, in that case, my last patch should be correct (tested on one of the Win7 buildbots). ---------- keywords: +needs review _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8184> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
