That should probably have been done for Commons Net 2.0, but it
looks like instead SocketClient calls the no-arg
SocketFactory.createSocket() and then Socket.connect(...) (using the
timeout set from SocketClient.setConnectTimeout(...)), which defeats
the purpose of delegating the details of socket creation to the
factory.  In any case, the functionality appears to be there already.
