[issue10473] Strange behavior for socket.timeout

[Roy Smith]

Thank you for the detailed analysis.  That certainly explains what I observed.

Would it make sense for socket.makefile() to check to see if the socket is in blocking mode (assuming there is some reliable/portable way to perform this check), and raise some exception if it is not?
