I am having this issue again with python code running under python 2.6.2
compiled from source on May 28, 2009 in CentOS 5.3. The patch in the
socketmodule.diff file does not seem to be applied to the socketmodule.c
file in the current 2.6.2

Applied the documentation patch in r63039. Thanks for your efforts!

This also affects Python 2.4 and 2.6 on Linux systems. Bug
http://bugs.python.org/issue2763 is a duplicate of this one.
The issue is that socketmodule.c doesn't convert empty strings to NULLs
before passing hptr through to the underlying system

Attached a patch to correct the getaddrinfo(...) documentation and the
code example in socket.rst.

What operating system are you using? It could be a bug in the operating
system as well.
