Further diagnostics (copying socket.py to suckit.py and adding a sys.exit(1) at various points and then importing sucket) seem to point to this line in socket.py: __all__.extend(os._get_exports_list(_socket)) So I can reduce the case to >>> import _socket >>> import os >>> os._get_exports_list(_socket) and it goes kablooie. If I do the same with _ssl: >>> import _ssl >>> import os >>> os._get_exports_list(_ssl) and it works fine. -tkc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
