New submission from Martin Panter:

The AMD64 Debian root buildbot and the x86 Gentoo Installed with X buildbot 
have been persistently failing test_nntplib for a while, and I can also 
reproduce it locally when “test -unetwork” is enabled. Six test cases fail. 
There is a pause before test_starttls() fails, then all the others fail 
immediately:

test_newgroups (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ok
test_over (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ok
test_starttls (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ERROR
test_unknown_command (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ERROR
test_welcome (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ok
test_with_statement (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ok
test_xhdr (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ERROR
test_xover (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ERROR
test_zlogin (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ERROR
test_zzquit (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTPTests) ... ERROR
test_article_head_body (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTP_SSLTests) ... ok
test_capabilities (test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTP_SSLTests) ... ok

Traceback from first failure:

EOFError

It seems like as soon as the TLS connection is successfully set up, the server 
(news.trigofacile.com) shuts down the connection.

Would it be appropriate to change this test so that instead of connecting to a 
remote server, we connect to a local server running in a background thread? I 
attach a Python script that runs a minimal server with hardcoded responses 
allowing test_starttls() to pass. Perhaps we could use this for 
test_starttls(). Maybe even extend it to other remote server tests as well.
