Comment(by nickm):

 Agreed that unit tests shouldn't hit the network, and should work even on
 this crappy hotel internet.

 One option here is to take the part of that test that hits the network and
 make it disabled-by-default.  I added a feature to the upstream tinytest
 library last week that lets you mark some tests as not on-by-default, and
 then turn them on by saying @network_dependent or @takes_too_long or
 whatever.  If that seems like a good choice, we can copy in the latest
 tinytest, take all the tests that fail in the hotel, or when you turn your
 laptop's wireless off, and mark them as disabled, and add an @alias to
 turn them back on.

 Mocking is also maybe a good choice, though we haven't done it yet.  Are
 there any good C mocking libraries/tools/systems/methodologies we should
 be looking at?
