I'd been > puzzling over that for a bit with some of the Perl module tests. I think it's reasonable to expect both localhost and 127.0.0.1 to be reachable during builds. I believe the vserver problems mentioned elsewhere have been addressed on the vserver side, and I think that's the right solution because telling the world they can no longer count on the existence of localhost would be a very hard sell, and not something I see any reason for Debian to be taking the lead on.
