Martin Panter added the comment:

Actually test_bad_address() in /test/test_urllib2_localnet.py looks redundant 
with the test of the same name in /test/test_urllibnet.py. That test already 
has a nice precondition to skip the test if DNS does not fail, originating in 
revision 7d69d04522e3. And it has a failure message like I already proposed 
(added by Issue 3583, but probably not so important because that report was 
made before precondition in revision 7d69d04522e3 was added).

Long story short: Delete the redundant test from test_urllib2_localnet.

Makes me wonder what other redundancies there are. I guess this is leftover 
baggage from Python 2’s dual urllib and urllib2 modules.
