Summary: Can't use sockets in 2.5b1

Initial Comment:
I'm testing Mercurial with Python 2.5b1, and I am getting severe badness in the socket module, complaining that _socket.socket doesn't have a recv_into method.

This looks like a broken install.  The socket objects
do have a recv_into() method in socketmodule.c.  Try "make
clean; make".  If it does not help, check where the _socket
module comes from with:

python2.5
>>> import _socket
>>> print _socket.__file__

and make sure that this file is among the ones you just
recompiled.
