I'd accept a patch if it's not too horrible to detect, but I'm not going to
spend any time on this myself; I don't consider partial-functionality Python
builds to be a supported platform for our regression tests.

(We should already be skipping all the relevant tests if Python has IPv6
support but no IPv6 addresses are configured, so most of the infrastructure is
already in place.)
