New submission from Ramsey Dow <yes...@speakeasy.net>: I couldn't install setuptools (required by gitosis) because Python 2.6.1 didn't install socket when I built it. A little digging and I uncommented the "_socket socketmodule.c" line in Modules/Setup. Unfortunately, the Bluetooth socket stuff in Modules/socketmodule.c was broken under NetBSD. I made this patch and tested on NetBSD 4.0.1.
When researching this bug on bugs.python.org, I noticed issue5400 which, in order to get Modules/socketmodule.c compiling, disabled Bluetooth socket support entirely. That isn't necessary. I just had to ensure the various structure references made use of the proper member names (according to NetBSD's /usr/include/netbt/bluetooth.h header file). The changes I made were similar, though not precisely the same, as those for FreeBSD.
