Also clarified the docs as they were a little hazy on the subject matter.

mistake in his code, I'm adding a note explaining that you should call

Patch by Jp Calderone:
...
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
See SF patch #658327 .
This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
