Error(s) that match a know pattern:

This does not seem to be a musl issue. The failing test uses IPv6, which I suspect is missing on the tinderbox, can you confirm this?

There is the PDNS_TEST_NO_IPV6 envvar available to disable these tests. The package has no build-time ipv6 option, so there is no USE flag for it, and adding it for just skipping the tests seems overkill. Do you have a way to set the envvar per package? Another solution could be to have something along

> if use kernel_linux && [[ ! -f /proc/net/if_inet6 ]]; then
> 	export PDNS_TEST_NO_IPV6="1"
> fi

in the ebuild.
