[issue6724] r74463 causes failures in test_xmlrpc

[Gregory P. Smith]

Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org> added the comment:

hmm apparently the bug i was fixing in r74463 is not actually a bug, the 
httplib module does not support streaming requests in any way so even with 
a new socket buffer being constructed per request, the buffer is 
guaranteed to be empty at the end of completed request.

I'll undo the change and/or fix it to only close the connection if there 
was left over received data in the buffer after the response is finished.
