Message:
See
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/18376 the issue has been fixed in all
python ports except python25. I wont spend time coding a high-level
workaround for a lower-level issue, knowing that the said low-level bug is
going to be fixed in no more than a couple of weeks.
But again, that's only me :)
http://bugs.python.org/issue5154 is the relevant Python issue

Message:
I really want see this fixed as possible, avoiding problems to users. We
can add a simple workaround based on O.S. type and Python version, for
example (in case, just print a warning of a missing feature). Another
possible solution is to add support for the cURL library and recommend it
in the installation instruction, that is very useful to resolve easily also
others very ugly and high priority problems with the current PyWikipediaBot
network code...

Message:
1) using socket_timeout = None in your user-config.py should "fix" the
issue on pywikipedia.
") If you want to fix more durably the issue, please follow the
instructions on the last post of
http://www.cherrypy.org/ticket/598
(bottom). It involves customizing the Python build under MacOS to avoid
defining the HAVE_POLL constant.
3) The fix applied by cherrypy here (
http://www.cherrypy.org/changeset/1915 ) is not applicable for pywikipedia:
they basically re-implement a complete new socket file descriptors to use
non-blocking socket calls, to avoid calling the broken poll() of MacOS.
Clearly, we're not going to do this here
I'm closing this as Wont Fix because it is a python+MacOS issue, and that
fixing the issue on the Python side is more relevant than implement complex
structures in pywikipedia to overcome that Python issue.
Comments are left open purposely.

What about latest Python version (2.6.1)?
Doesn't look as reported to Python issue tracker, though.

There is a much easier solution:
Add the following line to user-config.py:
socket_timeout = None
Note: Apparently, the socket timeout is broken in the combination python
2.5 and MacOS 10.4. If socket_timeout is set to any number, error 35 occurs
when putting pages larger than ca. 30 kb.

After reading the following thread:
http://www.cherrypy.org/ticket/598
I came up with the following solution:
conn.endheaders()
if hasattr(conn.sock, 'setblocking'): #####
conn.sock.setblocking(1) ######
conn.send(data)
I am not 100% sure if this is safe, but maybe someone socket-savvy can
find out by reading the above thread.

This probably is a bug in an updated version of urllib2 in python2.5+.
Could you try updating your python install and see if the problem remains?
