test failures on Red Hat 9

[Danny R. Faught]

I don't get a clean "make check" on Red Hat 9 with CVS sources I updated 
  this morning.  I'm running python 2.2.2.  Are the tests expected to 
pass in this configuration?

Both check-rsh and check-threads hang.  The other test suites pass. 
Here's the output from check-rsh:

-------------------------------------------------------------
cd qm && PYTHONPATH=. /usr/bin/python2 -O ./setup.py -q build
warning: build_py: package init file './test/classes/__init__.py' not 
found (or not a regular file)
warning: build_py: package init file './test/classes/__init__.py' not 
found (or not a regular file)
rm -f tests/QMTest/rsh_target
qm/test/qmtest -D tests create-target \
                 -a host=localhost -a remote_shell=ssh \
	-T tests/QMTest/rsh_target \
	rsh rsh_target.RSHTarget
qm/test/qmtest -D tests run -T tests/QMTest/rsh_target \
  \
-c qmtest_path=`pwd`/qm/test/qmtest \
	-c qmtest_target=`pwd`/tests/QMTest/rsh_target
Couldn't establish connection to proxy: Network is unreachable
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
-------------------------------------------------------------

I have to interrupt make to break out at this point.  Granted, I've been 
frequently reconfiguring my network lately, but I don't recall any 
documentation about network prerequisites needed to run the tests.

The result from check-threads is worse:

-------------------------------------------------------------
cd qm && PYTHONPATH=. /usr/bin/python2 -O ./setup.py -q build
warning: build_py: package init file './test/classes/__init__.py' not 
found (or not a regular file)
warning: build_py: package init file './test/classes/__init__.py' not 
found (or not a regular file)
rm -f tests/QMTest/thread_target
qm/test/qmtest -D tests create-target -a threads=4 \
	-T tests/QMTest/thread_target \
	thread thread_target.ThreadTarget
qm/test/qmtest -D tests run -T tests/QMTest/thread_target \
	 \
	-c qmtest_path=qm/test/qmtest \
	-c qmtest_target=tests/QMTest/thread_target
-------------------------------------------------------------

It hangs at this point.  I have to send a SIGKILL to all QMTest python 
programs to recover.  Here's a snapshot from ps:
