Hi Tim, 

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, DuplicateHandle(..) seem to fail if the handle is to a socket under XP SP3. 

Can you point me to the guidelines about submitting patch so I can merge my change in main branch and upload it?

We build python from source and doesn't use pywin32 as of now. So I downloaded them yesterday to come up with a test case in python which you can use in your test bed.
