hiredis FTBFS on sparc

[Alessandro Ghedini <al3xbio@gmail.com>]

Hi,

the package "hiredis" is failing to build on sparc because of test 
failures and I can't understand why.

The tests are run against a local redis instance listening on 
127.0.0.1:6379 but on sparc the connections get refused:

    Testing against TCP connection (127.0.0.1:6379):
    Connection error: Connection refused
    make[2]: *** [test] Error 1

Given that sparc is the only architecture where this happens, I disabled 
the tests on it in the last upload, but I'd like to find a better solution 
if possible.

Any clue on why this happens only on sparc? Am I doing something wrong?

Full build logs at [0] and [1] (the package never built on sparc with the 
tests enabled).

Thanks
