Patch to fix the NullPointerException in getLocalHost

This occurs when running the junit task in ant.  Whenever Java cannot seem to
resolve localhost(i.e. InetAddress.getLocalHost() returns null) a
NullPointerException is generated and the build fails(crashes) if run in forked
mode.  See
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24053861/ant-getting-nullpointerexception-after-tests?noredirect=1#comment37088009_24053861
for more information.

I have attached a patch file as a fix, this basically just performs a null
check on getLocalHost and if it is null return "localhost" as the host name.
