Are you sure this is the source of the failure? The tests which
require access to the outside internet require you actively to put
:internet-available onto your *features* list, which seems unlikely
(it's quite hard to arrange for that without noticing). There is a
test which tests that you get a name service error for looking up a
nonexistent host, but that should fail equally well whether you have a
live internet connection or not.
