I think we should include /etc/hosts in the chroot with an entry for
localhost.  We might also need /etc/nsswitch.conf; I'm not sure.  I see
no reason not to do this, and I suspect it would ultimately take less
time and effort than disabling tests.

When I suggested this on IRC, Ludovic seemed open to the idea.

   Thoughts?
