[New-bugs-announce] [issue8889] test_support.transient_internet fails on Freebsd because socket has no attribute EAI_NODATA

[R. David Murray]

New submission from R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com>:

test_support.transient_internet was modified to check for more errors, but one of them, socket.EAI_NODATA, is not supported by FreeBSD.  The attached patch rewrites transient_internet to only test EAI error codes that exist, and also improves the skip message.
