I cannot reproduce this failure, and on Hydra everything is fine:

https://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/gst-plugins-base-1.12.4.x86_64-linux

Strange that it fails on your machine, it suggests some "impurity" in
the build environment.  Can you try to figure out why it does not work?

TCP sockets on localhost are normally fine, as long as they don't use
getaddrinfo() (I've been thinking about adding support for that).
