Found the problem. /etc/hosts on my chroot was had 600 permissions and
as such not readable by the build process. Somehow the failure in
looking up localhost in this test resulted in the test hanging.

I saeem to be having problems building the latest Jessie version
3.4.2-1+deb8u1 on Jessie.

[1/1] test_httplib
test test_httplib failed -- multiple errors occurred; run in verbose mode for 
details
1 test failed:
test_httplib
[1/1] test_httpservers


It seems to hang at this point. At first I though I broke something with
my fix for CVE-2016-5699.patch, which makes changes to httplib, but I
reverted all my changes and get exactly the same messages followed by
the same hang.

When I accidentally built the package on a sid schroot, I didn't get the
test failure, but I got the hang still. So suspect the failure is not
related to the hang.
