This only happens (I think) if the build host does not have internet access.

[guest - Fri Jan 30 06:04:20 2004]: Further infomation is that if yor http_proxy or HTTP_PROXY settings do not allow the connection to the build machine, the make test can not work. This needs to be cleaned up to not use the proxy on the local lookups. The workaround is to unset the http_proxy settings before the make test.
Starting in 0.73_01, the http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY environment variables get deleted during the tests that access the dummy local server. This should let your tests pass.

Thanks Andy, I'll give it a test when 0.73_01 is up for download for you.
