This randomly pops up in the autotester, which then everyone ignores and reruns the test:
--- std.socket(981) test fails depending on environment ---
(core.exception.AssertError@std/socket.d(986): Assertion failure

FWIW this is just a warning and doesn't lead to the test failing.
(I'm not saying that this is great, but probably in the log at which you're looking there might be another spurious failure).

Looks like the message appears most likely due to a missing internet connection (or similar). From my experience there are larger problems, when the internet connection of the autotesters is down - like cannot start the test at all due to missing downloads and the like.
IMHO, having these tests as warnings is the best solution. The alternative would be to remove the tests altogether or suppress the warning. I'll close this. Feel free to reopen, if you think, there is a better solution.
