** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+
+ * Causes random tracebacks on DNS lookups when break functionality of
+ packages that use the module. In the case the bug was filed for, the
+ impact would be a postfix server returning servfail and deferring
+ message traffic.
+
+ * The code represents a missed change for the port from python to
+ python3.
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ * This bug only happens when multiple DNS queries attempt to use the
+ same port at the same time. It's very difficult to reproduce and as far
+ as I know impossible to do it consistently. The attached script
+ demonstrates the new code working and the old code failing. That and
+ code inspection are the best ways to verify this.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+
+ * Regression potential is nil.
+
Note: This is an extract from a private bug.
