 Replying to [comment:30 DH-Shredder]:
 > Ported unit test to phpunit, in [attachment:13841-unit-test.2.diff], but
 instead of the test failing gracefully without the proper patches, it just
 hangs, since the SimpleSocketServer is designed not to respond (ever).

 Yep.  If the test is running without the patch and
 WP_TESTS_FORCE_KNOWN_BUGS is true, then the tests will hang.  I tried to
 get fancy here to avoid another external call when writing the test.

 I can move this off to a local fork, or child process.  It would probably
 be best to just move it to the new http://api.wordpress.org/core/tests
 site, though.

 The test just needs a URL that will take "a while" (> 2 seconds) to
 respond so we can test the timeouts, but will eventually respond so the
 tests won't hang if the patch isn't available.
