--- Comment #5 from Kai Blin kai.blin@gmail.com 2008-05-27 16:59:08 --- It's actually not fixed yet.
The patch introduced for 0.9.61 is a hack to make gethostbyname(name) return 127.12.34.56 instead of 127.0.0.1 if name is not "localhost". This is to make bind aware that some stupid windows program tried to bind to the IP with the default route. However, I forgot to fix "connect" to change 127.12.34.56 back to 127.0.0.1, as on connect this should still work.
Of course one could argue that you should always use "localhost" if you want to connect to 127.0.0.1.
I'm preparing a patch to address the connect issue.
