I noticed the flag socket.MSG_WAITALL seems to have crept its way into
Python 2.5 on Windows (it's in 2.5.4, but not in 2.5.1, not sure about

to cause some problems in some libraries (like Pyro) that use it if
it's available in the socket module.

Does anyone know more about this?

MSG_WAITALL is supported, starting with Windows Server 2003.

It's a tough situation.  Ideally, you'd want socket to remove that symbol
on the systems where it's not supported, but that's asking a lot.

My installation doesn't have _socket.MSG_WAITALL, Wes, I wonder where yours is 
coming from?
(Python 2.5.4 and 2.5.2, on Windows XP. On my Mac (OS X) it does have the flag, and it's working fine there.).
