1639941 - test fallback-to-https on Mac OS X

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect, P3)

Description

[Sid Stamm [:geekboy or :sstamm]]

In bug 1002724, we added support for trying HTTPS on a server that rejects HTTP connections on port 80 while we're doing URL fixup. The tests in dom/test/browser/browser_fall_back_to_https.js don't run on OS X because it relies on 127.0.0.2 (which is disabled on OS X by default).

We need to find another way to test bug 1002724 on Mac or enable 127.0.0.2. For example:
