(but I can't assign it to myself, nor close it -- sorry)

fix to the code to make it behave like the module docstring.

* There was no error reported if the .read() method returns a non-string
* If read() returned too much data, the buffer would be overflowed causing a
  core dump
* Used strncpy, not memcpy, which seems incorrect if there are embedded \0s.
* The args and bytes objects were leaked

	The first two warnings seem harmless enough,
	but the last one looks like a potential bug: an
	uninitialized int is returned on error. (I also
	ended up reformatting some of the code,
	because it was hard to read.)

Changed parameter in getsockaddrlen from unsigned to socklen_t.

mac-specific functions to have a PyMac_ name.
