Even lo0 ? That's hard ;)

if getaddrinfo for PF_UNSPEC returns '::' in this situation then it's really a lib(c|socket|nsl) bug, it does this on Linux aswell, but the KAME implementation (and I believe windows) have it fixed.
No, the OS is not returning '::'. We're not using PF_UNSPEC, but hard-coding PF_INET6. (AF_INET6, AP_INET6, whatever the #define is.)
In alloc_listener, we're hardcoding '::' and PF_INET6 unconditionally if the OS supports IPv6 (as determined by find_default_family). (See the !addr branch.)
I have a hunch that we may be able to create ephemeral ports (NULL address passed in) without a configured IPv6 interface on Solaris. Which strikes me as not being totally wrong on Solaris's part.
I still maintain that my patch should be applied. Let PF_UNSPEC figure it out. -- justin
