I agree with @bitdancer in bpo-31627 that a host without a hostname is misconfigured. Since this change is only in a test, would it be better to mock socket.gethostname() so that it doesn't return an empty hostname?

Since the change doesn't weaken the test, I think we should not bother with a mock. This way if some weird hostname causes a real bug, we might get a report. With a mock, we'd miss that.
