Summary: test work around for problematic DNS providers

Initial Comment:
In response to bug ID 2817904 there was a suggestion of a work around:

>>>
> test 20 and 507 fail because my ISP hijacks Page Not Found Errors
>
> Is it possible to make these non-fatal?
yes. Also possible is getting a non-crappy ISP.

My suggestion however it to put an upstream feature request that DNS replies
like this are faked using LD_PRELOAD/LD_LIBRARY_PATH wrapping the network
functions so this doesn't occur.
