Comment (by pierre.labastie):

 OK, I think I understand what is going on. On the machine where the tests
 hang, http://localhost serves a copy of www.linuxfromscratch.org website.
 I use it to test the html before I make jhalfs releases.

 Now testapi.c tries to access http://localhost/ with various flags, and
 one is DTD_VALID. Guess what, the first lines read when you access the
 linuxfromscratch.org website are:
 {{{
 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
     "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd";>
 }}}
 So that the parser tries to access the DTD on the web. Why it fails is not
 clear to me, but at least I understand why no other machine sees this.
 I'll add a note that local httpd should be shut down during tests.
