Comment(by cjb):

 Worked around in Wikipedia.xo like so:

 {{{
 +        from xpcom import components
 +        from xpcom.components import interfaces
 +
 +        # Use xpcom to turn off "offline mode" detection, which disables
 +        # access to localhost for no good reason.  (Trac #6250.)
 +        ios_class = components.classes["@mozilla.org/network/io-
 service;1"]
 +        io_service = ios_class.getService(interfaces.nsIIOService2)
 +        io_service.manageOfflineStatus = False
 }}}
