no php bug, it tries to contact localhost which was certainly updated to
IPv6 ::1, or the server was using IPv6 and not ipv4. In both cases it is
not a bug. (bogus)

Bingo! After uninstalling IPv6 everything works as expected.
I remember that I installed IPv6 for XP and after that I didn't used
Drupal. Today I updated Drupal and fell into this problem.
I don't know if this is PHP problem or some underlining library (XP
bug?).

what's about IPv6?

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts contains
127.0.0.1 localhost
and other entries are irrelevant to this case.
This happened after some Drupal updates but I can't see how this can
influence PHP itself - the above PHP example is isolated from Drupal
framework.

Can you check that you do not have IPv6 enabled (it is not in xp Pro
afaict)? I think it is enabled and your host file should have a line
like:
::1 locahost ..other hosts...
comment it out and be sure that the ipv4 127.0.0.1 aliases are in place.
