[New-bugs-announce] [issue1348] httplib closes socket, then tries to read from it

[Bill Janssen]

New submission from Bill Janssen:

I can't get urllib.urlopen() to work with SSL, and it seems to be due to 
a bug in the re-write of httplib.  HTTPConnection.getresponse() is 
closing the socket, but then returning a response object holding onto 
that closed socket to the caller, who then tries to read from the 
(closed) socket.  Due to the delayed closing of sockets, this error is 
masked, but in SSL, the context is torn down on close, so we see real 
failures.
