This test fails only within the build container.  When run outside of
the build container, with environment variables cleaned except for
/tmp/guix-build-perl-io-socket-ssl-2.023.drv-0/environment-variables,
the same test succeeds:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

I modified the package description to set TEST_VERBOSE=1 in the
Makefile:

    (arguments
     `(#:phases (modify-phases %standard-phases
                  (add-before 'check 'pre-check
                    (lambda _
                      (substitute* "Makefile"
                        (("^TEST_VERBOSE=0") "TEST_VERBOSE=1")))))))

and here's the verbose output:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
