Do you propose to let the error raise then?
The point of frameworks such as asyncore and twisted is to hide all 
system-specific errors as much as possible and provide a portable interface 
across all platforms.
AFAICT, the whole point of this issue is that there should be only one way for 
an asyncore-based server to accept an incoming connection, possibly avoiding 
the user to deal with low-level details such as catching 
EWOULDBLOCK/ECONNABORTED/... in his application, and looking for accept() 
returning None is one possibility.

As I said, in a better designed framework the user shouldn't be supposed to 
call accept() at all, but that's how asyncore is designed.
