Log:
Issue #9792: In case of connection failure, socket.create_connection()
would swallow the exception and raise a new one, making it impossible
to fetch the original errno, or to filter timeout errors.  Now the
original error is re-raised.

 - Issue #9758: When fcntl.ioctl() was called with mutable_flag set to True,
   and the passed buffer was exactly 1024 bytes long, the buffer wouldn't
   be updated back after the system call.  Original patch by Brian Brazil.
