Subject: t/*ssl.t tests hang (in ldap environments?)
Just in case you're wondering about fail reports like this one: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/02a927a4-a358-11e5-87a3-5bb6dfbfc7aa (and I see the same failures with libnet-3.08): this is very probably the same problem as https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=121755 . It's possible to workaround the problem by putting a $SIG{PIPE}='IGNORE'; at the top of the affected test files (but I am not really proposing this as a fix).

This problem happened on Linux Mint 13, which is approximately the same like Ubuntu 12.04. I did not see the problem in Linux Mint 17, nor in other Debian or Ubuntu systems. For the recent libnet there are no such fail reports --- possibly because the original problem is located in the OS and nobody runs that old linux distributions anymore. Therefore I think this issue may be closed.
