[issue7806] httplib.HTTPConnection.getresponse closes socket which destroys the response

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

But a goal is for the standard library to work with Python implementations other than CPython, and the reference counting behavior described won't happen in non-reference counting implementations.  So I don't think that requiring emulation of ref-counting behavior is valid.
