Fixes the socket.error(48, 'address already in use') intermittent failure by binding to an arbitrary high port and then using getsockname() to retrieve the port. There is a further error with the socket.error module that I think I'd like some hours of sleep before looking at.

This change has already been made to test_asyncore.py as part of rev 56604 on July 28, 2007.

Will it be backported to 2.5?

[alanmcintyre]

I don't know; I wouldn't mind doing it. Are there any special considerations for moving tests back to an older version? I can port the final set of changes to Py3k as well, since it seems that the discussion of this particular problem made its way over to the 3k mailing list at some point.
