Hmm, the specific traceback you pasted indicates an error
during the initial connection.  I think that's about the
best we're going to do for MM2.1 final.

Didn't work...  This comes up, btw, not during initial 
connection, but if the connection goes away during a 
gate_news run, like the daemon on the other end dies, 
or the news server reboots, etc.  You get an IOerror on 
the mailman side.

I didn't realize that nntplib.NNTP() can raise an IOError --
I thought it would have been a socket.error.  Oh well,
here's an untested patch.  I think I'll check this in just
because I don't see how it could break anything.
