Has that test been failing prior to my submodule update for libvirt?
This is likely a latent bug in gnulib that has been manifesting itself
on FreeBSD for a much longer time period than just the month's worth of
patches I pulled in by updating; but you are right that it would be nice
to fix it upstream.
I thought it did fail earlier, but now I see it didn't. There was an
IP addresses misconfiguration, but trying that now, I can only find a
commit on which there were 2 errors instead of 3, but none which would
successfully survive 'make check'.
So sorry for the noise I made about that.
