#6298: Test 'addr/basic' failure in tor master

 I just built branch 'master' (revision
 46434ecf5b6f1ad88deb86fdac044c41ae4b534b) from the tor.git repository with
 gcc 4.5.3 on x86_64-linux using this configure line:

 CC="gcc -m64 -mtune=core2" PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/lib64/pkgconfig
 PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/share/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=/usr
 --libdir=/usr/lib64 --libexecdir=/usr/libexec64 --sysconfdir=/etc
 --localstatedir=/var --build=x86_64-linux --host=x86_64-linux --disable-
 linker-hardening --disable-asciidoc

 This causes a test suite failure I haven't seen before:

 addr/basic:
   FAIL test_addr.c:36: assert((u32) == (0x7f000001u)): 2851995905 vs
 2130706433
   [basic FAILED]

 Turns out the DNS in this hotel *resolves localhost to 169.254.1.1*.  This
 is horribly wrong, of course, and I should have had a proper /etc/hosts
 for it anyway (*lashes self with wet noodle*), but why does the test suite
 depend on stuff random machines elsewhere on the network do at all to
 pass?  Shouldn't we mock this stuff somehow?
