When using the submit to pastebin functionality, if there is no active internet connection the whole bpython interpreter crashes with backtrace.

Error is uncaugh exception "socket.gaierror" from repl.py:715

I see that XMLRPCError is caught, but if there's no active connection the dns host lookup throws socket.gaierror which isn't handled.

Tested on linux, python2.6 and python3.1 with bpython version 0.9.7
