A recent patch makes asyncore.py's .set_reuse_addr method work on Windows, which needs a different socket option:

        if sys.platform == 'win32':
            reuse_constant = socket.SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE
        else:
            reuse_constant = socket.SO_REUSEADDR

Question: should the condition be sys.platform.startswith('win') for the sake of win64, or other Windows variants? (I don't know which values sys.platform can have on Windows.)
