Not that I have re-blued a ton of Fox barrels, but each one I have done has had small voids in the solder joints in a couple places. Minor voids like this will not sound any different when ringing than ones with no voids.
I would not have any concern either. The voids were there when the gun was made and did not change in 100 years.
