Comment 2 for bug 821984

I have a script I'm working on that creates a secure RCP over HTTP server and I've been confounded by an exception being thrown deep in the socket.py module -- through trouble-shooting I have discovered that this is due to an issue between python 2.6 and 2.7. Running stock 11.04, up to date.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "peerdisk-client.py", line 22, in <module>
    print broker.call('Sample2_main')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1224, in __call__
    return self.__send(self.__name, args)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1575, in __request
    verbose=self.__verbose
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1264, in request
    return self.single_request(host, handler, request_body, verbose)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xmlrpclib.py", line 1294, in single_request
    response = h.getresponse(buffering=True)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/httplib.py", line 1027, in getresponse
    response.begin()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/httplib.py", line 407, in begin
    version, status, reason = self._read_status()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/httplib.py", line 365, in _read_status
    line = self.fp.readline()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 447, in readline
    data = self._sock.recv(self._rbufsize)
socket.error: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer

Like I said, when I run it under python 2.6 I don't have any issues.
