Thanks.

Interesting point about the cases where this test fails when the hostname 
resolved to the loopback address. I'll add a note to the bug report. The other 
cases I've seen occur when the address of localhost is not 127.0.0.1, as the 
test has 127.0.0.1 hardcoded. On Ubuntu localhost is 127.0.1.1 and the test 
fails every time.
