3.3.3 beta build issues

1) There's "" around CFLAGS; this breaks the testlib targets objects (on
Linux, at least) because the ""s are passed off to the shell where CC is
invoked, causing gcc to interpret the entire string as a single flag.
Removing the ""s doesn't seem to have a negative impact on my Linux machine,
but YMMV.

2) tools/buildall.sh still has PLV="2".

3) Here's a fun one:  my local FW (not run by me :) doesn't just block SSH
connections, it resets them.  Thus:

"""
Testing SSHv2 session...
  Remote host: www.openssh.com.
Attempt to activate SSH client session failed with error code -41, line
1068.
  Error message = 
  'Error reading server's SSH identifier string: No data was read because
the remote system closed the connection (recv() == 0)'.
"""

Which prevents the rest of the tests from running.  In these modern days of
more and more network restrictions, should testlib's methodology be changed
to either treate network-dependent tests specially, or to not rely on
Internet resources during the test run?  E.g., testlib could equally well
create a SSH or SSL service on a local highport and connect to it for the
test.
