[issue27433] Missing "as err" in Lib/socket.py

[Tobias Burnus (PDF)]

New submission from Tobias Burnus (PDF):

Cf. https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/tip/Lib/socket.py#l261

In _sendfile_use_sendfile, one has:

            try:
                fsize = os.fstat(fileno).st_size
            except OSError:
                raise _GiveupOnSendfile(err)  # not a regular file

I think the "err" in the last line will only work if there is an "as err" in the "except" line.
