Martin v. Löwis added the comment:

I think it is neither possible nor "good" to produce a uniform result.
Python traditionally exposes APIs "as-is", providing the system actually
has an API with the same name. It never tries to hide differing system
behaviors in the Python wrapper; if systems vary and it is desirable to
provide a uniform API, a different API is added.

However, it is also not possible to make that uniform, as getsockname(3)
 gives an unspecified result, so it is not possible for Python to
actually determine whether there was a meaningful result.

Closing as rejected.
