Hi John,

with any doctest failure you should mention if it is reproducible or
not. In this case it seems that twisted or whoever closes the port
might do so in an unclean way, i.e. the kernel considers the port
still open and will only release it after some timeout. Knowing
nothing about the internals of twisted I wouldn't know how to fix it,
so somebody else should dig ;)
