At a quick glance at the code, we wait and check that the http server is correctly started up and responding to requests before we try to run any http tests, so I doubt this is what's going on.

Unless our logic for testing whether the server is up and running is wrong. See _is_server_running_on_all_ports in Tools/Scripts/webkitpy/layout_tests/servers/http_server_base.py to see that code. It seems to me that connecting to the server via a socket should be a sufficient test, but maybe it's not.
