We noticed this problem when web browsers would refuse to connect to the 
server.  *Then* we discovered the netstat oddity, and *then* we found that 
changing the Listen line in httpd.conf fixed it.

That leaves me still wanting an explanation for what happened.

New guess: there’s a difference between the IPv4 and v6 firewalls, so that 
changing the Listen line caused Apache to avoid the problem on the v6 side.

I guess we’ll just keep an eye out when we build our next EL7 box...
