  Try to make this test a little more robust and not fail with:
    timeout (10.0025) is more than 2 seconds more than expected (0.001)

  I'm assuming this problem is caused by DNS lookup.  This change
  does a DNS lookup of the hostname before trying to connect, so the time
  is not included.

  r61813 | gregory.p.smith | 2008-03-23 22:04:43 +0100 (Sun, 23 Mar 2008) | 6 lines

  Fix gzip to deal with CRC's being signed values in Python 2.x properly and to
  read 32bit values as unsigned to start with rather than applying signedness
  fixups allover the place afterwards.

  This hopefully fixes the test_tarfile failure on the alpha/tru64 buildbot.
