Symptoms:
>>> import socket
>>> s = socket.socket()
>>> s.settimeout(30.0)
>>> s.connect(("gmail.org", 995))
>>> ss = socket.ssl(s)
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
 File "C:\python24\lib\socket.py", line 74, in ssl
 return _realssl(sock, keyfile, certfile)
 socket.sslerror: (2, 'The operation did not complete
(read)')
This does not occur on Unix, where
test_socket_ssl.test_timeout runs smoothly.
