Comment (by johnbillion):

 In [changeset:"40519"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="40519"
 Build/Test Tools: Don't skip tests when php.net or dev.mysql.com are
 unreachable.

 This sort of behaviour subtly hides the fact that these tests will never
 fail if the URLs where version number information is fetched from go away
 for one reason or another.

 See #40533
