One possible cause for the plug/socket test to fail is if you run it
with another perl binary than the system default one. The test does a
fork/exec, and the exec:ed binary is simply specified as "perl", which
will be resolved using your $PATH as usual. If that's not the same
perl binary as is running the test, wonkiness may ensue.
