The http network test (tst_qnetworkreply) is still disabled in CI on all 
platforms because of a hard to reproduce crash on exit (1/200)

Mostly we test QNetworkAccessManager against the test server rather than 
localhost (to test Qt against other implementations rather than only against 
itself)
However if you have a suitable loopback test case for this, I'd welcome it.

The test server requires an upgrade before we can do dual stack testing against 
it.
The danted* SOCKS proxy doesn't support IPv6 (SS5** does, but isn't available 
as a package, only a source tarball)
The squid3 HTTP proxy needs a package update and configuration change
Apache needs a configuration change
Vsftpd needs a configuration change, possibly a package update
The frox FTP proxy doesn't support IPv6 (I have not looked for an alternative.)
FTP is not network layer transparent

Also, it needs IPv6 address for qt-test-server in the hosts file of the DUT, 
which isn't convenient with link local addresses.

I do want this to happen, but getting the existing autotests re-enabled is 
higher priority.

*We're also using an ancient version, the current 1.1.19 results in some XPASS 
but also some FAILs due to regressions on the server side.
** I have no idea of the quality or stability of this implementation
