I suspect this is the same issue as JDK-8133093 where we running this 
test on Solaris when resources are at exhaustion point. I hope Michael 
will jump in here too to summarize how accept behaves on Solaris when 
trying to get a loopback connection and the kernel is out of file 
descriptors or connections.

One thing that would be useful is for these "same binary runs" is 
capture the netstat output so that we can see how many local connections 
are in timed wait. One other thing is to look at file descriptor usage 
after each test - I've done this in the past in other to track down 
tests that are leaking file descriptors as such leaks can accumulate in 
agent VM test runs and cause issues for tests that run much latter in 
the test run.
