It is 4.53-RC2... I'll retry with the release version.

Actually, it doesn't have an A record either. The hostname maps to
127.0.0.1 via /etc/hosts, though. It's a workstation in a dynamic
environment. (192.168.x)

That doesn't sound good to me, but YMMV.

No, it isn't.

That would be better, yes. E.g. with nodes behind a NAT device you may
have 10.x addresses bound on mailservers. Same for mailservers with
additional internal interfaces, of course, so this doesn't sound too
unusual. Or does this only concern the "primary" interface?
Besides, the test suite will be used on development boxes mostly,
wouldn't it? So one should maybe try to cope with "all" possible network
setups anyway. (Maybe even no network at all, at least for test that
doesn't test network functionalities...?)

It looks like that, yes.

Hmm, not really. But in test-stderr-server i get:
exim: incompatible command-line options or arguments
I modified runtest to print out the exim command it is executing, and
got the following:
/home/tiefnig/exim/exim-testsuite-0.00/eximdir/exim -t
-DEXIM_PATH=/home/tiefnig/exim/exim-testsuite-0.00/eximdir/exim -C
/home/tiefnig/exim/exim-testsuite-0.00/test-config -DSERVER=server -bd
-oX 1225 >>test-stdout 2>>test-stderr
