[issue1305] socket.py hangs on Mac OS X

[Facundo Batista]

Facundo Batista added the comment:

What happens if you force the garbage collector to collect the just
opened and not used socket?

Maybe the problem is that the operating system run out of file handlers
(if you leave some time in the middle, the GC collects the sockets,
freeinig the file handlers).

Other test could be to disable the GC, and see what happens with that
time.sleep in the middle.
