New submission from p0lm:

Currently the arguments for HTTPConnection.putrequest in the http.client 
documentation are listed as "request, selector, skip_host=False, 
skip_accept_encoding=False". This does not reflect the correct arguments:
>>> from http.client import HTTPConnection
>>> help(HTTPConnection.putrequest)

putrequest(self, method, url, skip_host=0, skip_accept_encoding=0)
    Send a request to the server.
    
    `method' specifies an HTTP request method, e.g. 'GET'.
    `url' specifies the object being requested, e.g. '/index.html'.
    `skip_host' if True does not add automatically a 'Host:' header
    `skip_accept_encoding' if True does not add automatically an
       'Accept-Encoding:' header

Fix:
Change `request` and `selector` to `method` and `url` respectively.
