Martin Panter added the comment:

Maybe it is good enough use something like this as a workaround, with an 
appropriate comment:

if e.errno == getattr(socket, "EAI_NODATA", None):  # Symbol not defined on 
FreeBSD

However I wonder if it would be reasonable to set this constant (and similar 
undefined error codes) to a dummy value like None by default in the module. The 
documentation already says “for a few symbols, default values are provided”.
