by "memberfunction" I mean a member of the class.  I tried staticmethod and it didn't work:

(Picking this kind of stuff should work of course but that's another story)
But changing it to staticmethod strangely fixes it.  Interesting.

the gethostbynametests were an encoding mistake.  Would not have been checked in but it was nice of you to notice.

These are windows only tests for python 3.3.  There is no need to test for IPV6.

Here is yet another patch.
