I'm seeing the same thing. I did the standard unix build (after 
installing ReadLines 4.2 and Tcl/Tk 8.something (3 or 4, I don't 
recall which at the moment). It all seemed to build OK, though I may 
have missed some error messages. The result seems just fine except no 
_socket. I have no idea how to fix it. I spent days just getting that 
that point. It's painful, since I am developing a Python networked 
GUI. Barring a solution, I'm planning to wait for fink to be updated 
to 10.2 or for Python 2.3.
