I can confirm this behaviour. It is possible to force the local
address to 127.0.0.1 though.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ telnet 127.0.0.1 25
[19:39]
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Fortunately this behaviour didn't break anything here, but it does seem
broken nonetheless.
I updated my machine earlier today and got 5.2-BETA:
