On Solaris 10, because of the lack of "http" in the default /etc/inet/services, the following error occurs during make test-all.

 52) Error:
TestGemCommandsServerCommand#test_handle_options_port:
OptionParser::InvalidArgument: invalid argument: -p http: no such named service
    /XXXXX/lib/rubygems/commands/server_command.rb:21:in `rescue in block in initialize'
    /XXXXX/lib/rubygems/commands/server_command.rb:18:in `block in initialize'
    /XXXXX/lib/rubygems/command.rb:375:in `handle_options'
    /XXXXX/test/rubygems/test_gem_commands_server_command.rb:40:in `test_handle_options_port'

The file /etc/inet/services in Illumos (OpenIndiana) was already updated in 2011. (https://www.illumos.org/issues/2690 )
I don't know in Solaris 11 because I don't have Solaris 11.

It seems correct that rubygems can't continue in such case.
Probably those situations should be skipped.

Applied in changeset r52329.

• test/rubygems/test_gem_commands_server_command.rb
  (test_handle_options_port): change port from http to discard.
  Solaris does not include "http 80/tcp" in its default
  /etc/inet/services. AFAIK, discard (9/tcp) is older than http
  and it is expected that all OS can resolve the service name.
