When running the test suite I ran into a similar
problem to bug #1257988.

in the FileHandler class's get_names() method should be
wrapped in a try, except block because it shouldn't
assume that the localhost has a fqdn hostname.

Attached is a minimal diff against trunk r43542.

This fixes the test failure and is safe.  I don't know if a
more sophisticated patch is possible, but if nobody comes up
with one, I think this should be applied (as happened with
#1257988).

Fixed in rev. 43552.
