Subject: Test port > 65535
The test suite is using a socket with a port > 65535, which at least does not seem to work under FreeBSD. See http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/7b59f01c-ce0a-11e4-a736-6ee5e0bfc7aa for a sample fail report. It is somewhat surprising that the test passes on other platforms like linux. Maybe it's so because only the least significant 16 bits are used here: $ nc localhost 85432 localhost [127.0.0.1] 19896 (?) : Connection refused $ perl -E 'say(85432 & 0xffff)' 19896

It seems that other BSD-derived OSes (NetBSD, OpenBSD, MacOSX) have the same problem. See http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=HTTP-Server-Brick for a pass/fail overview.
