The Lib/socket.py module that comes with jython contains
the assignment:

__all__ = ['AF_INET', 'SOCK_DGRAM', 'SOCK_RAW', 'SOCK_RDM', 
'SOCK_SEQPACKET',
           'SOCK_STREAM', 'SocketType', 'error', 'getfqdn', 'gethostbyaddr',
           'gethostbyname', 'gethostname', 'socket']

You can fix the bug by adding 'SOL_SOCKET' there.
