New submission from Ned Deily:

Three "send timeout" test cases in test_socket were changed by a4e4facad164 for 
Issue12958 to be "expected failures" on OS X because of observed failures on 
the OS X buildbots running OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and earlier.

testInterruptedSendTimeout (test.test_socket.InterruptedSendTimeoutTest) ... 
unexpected success
testInterruptedSendmsgTimeout (test.test_socket.InterruptedSendTimeoutTest) ... 
unexpected success
testInterruptedSendtoTimeout (test.test_socket.InterruptedSendTimeoutTest) ... 
unexpected success

It seems that the platform bugs causing the failures were fixed in OS X 10.7 so 
that the "expected failures" no longer fail.  However, the change in behavior 
had not been noticed because, until the recent change to unittest in 
Issue20165, unittest did not fail when there were unexpected successes.  Now it 
does fail, causing test_socket to fail on OS X 10.7+ for 3.4.  On 3.3 the 
"unexpected success" failures are silently skipped.  The attached patch changes 
the test cases to be skipped for OS X versions prior to 10.7 rather than to 
always expect failure on OS X.
