Hopefully with your VMS hobbyist system you can leave that behind
you, but do see if you can find the right thing to click on in
Mozilla that will send your posts in plain text rather than HTML :-).

OK, I thought this sounded familiar so I did a bit more dredging in
the archives and it turns out this test wasn't really expected to run
in 5.6.1.  I posted a patch to the test, but it was only a fluke of
the VMS test harness that caused it to run in the first place.  See:

Your overall number of tests (237?) is about right for 5.6.1, so if
this was your only failure you're good to go.  5.8.0 has about 650
test scripts, so there's a lot more that can go wrong.
