More precisely: the subtests using datagram\nsockets fail. Unix datagram sockets aren't implemented in Haiku yet.\n\n•   A subtest of the cpan/Sys-Syslog/t/syslog.t test fails. This is due to Haiku not\nimplementing /dev/log support yet.\n\n•   The tests dist/Net-Ping/t/450service.t and dist/Net-Ping/t/510pingudp.t fail. This is\ndue to bugs in Haiku's network stack implementation.\n",
