Martin: socket.socket has no destructor so a call to
socket.socket._real_close() is not guaranteed. Thats fine as its parent
class from socketmodule.c _socket.socket does the right thing in its
destructor.
Amaury: The case you show doesn't call SOCKETCLOSE() because x still
exists and holds a reference to the socket object.
In order to fix that, SocketIO needs to drop its reference on close.
Take a look at the attached -gps04 patch. It fixes that.
