handlers.SocketHandler and exceptions

[writeson]

Vinay,

Thanks for your reply, very interesting. We're currently running
Python2.3 (though we are getting ready to move to Python2.5), so I'm
guessing the code you're showing comes from Python2.5? I'm wondering
if I can edit the handlers.py code in my Python2.3 installation, make
the changes you show above, and have things work? Any thoughts on
this?

Thanks for the help!!
Doug
