1. Disconnect your network cable
2. Set a static IP on your ethernet interface
3. Comment out the '(skip-unless internet-is-working)' line in
test/lisp/net/network-stream-tests.el
4. Run:
    cd test
    make network-stream-tests SELECTOR=connect-to-tls-ipv4-nowait

Output:

    make[1]: Entering directory '/home/rpluim/repos/emacs-real-master/test'

This is emacs crashing in gnutls_try_handshake at gnutls.c:629 the
second time we call gnutls_handshake. The first time we called it we
got -53 GNUTLS_E_PUSH_ERROR, which is not surprising, because the test
has deleted the listening gnutls-serv process.

My reading of
<https://gnutls.org/manual/gnutls.html#gnutls_005fhandshake> is that
after receiving a fatal error, we should not call gnutls_handshake
again. Iʼve tested the following patch successfully. We currently
check only for GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED, but the list of non-fatal error
codes is more than that, so perhaps more is needed.

       while (ret == GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED);

Yes, I think that this looks like the correct fix here.

Except now the test suite fails. Back to the drawing board.

This really is the bug that keeps on giving. Turns out one of my
network cards (the fast one <sniff>) is buggy, in that it will say
itʼs passing packets when in fact itʼs not, so the patch is in fact ok
(but out of an excess of caution I won't push it till tomorrow, along
with some related test suite changes).

Iʼve now beaten it into submission. All it took was a distro upgrade.

Committed as d84d69dfbc
Closing.

Eli, you might want to cherry-pick that to emacs-27, but Iʼve not
tested it there.

Thanks, but I'd rather not put there anything that isn't well tested.
