Ignore just 127.0.0.1 instead of the whole loopback address range.

Yes, it is expected behavior from the spec of AI_ADDRCONFIG.  Since it was not
implemented correctly, your setup used to be working by chance.
Ignoring the loopback address is necessary to make AI_ADDRCONFIG usable. 
However, the loopback address except for 127.0.0.1 isn't used in a usual setup.
 Though it breaks a spec to be exact, there may be room for modifying
getaddrinfo(3) to ignore just 127.0.0.1 instead of the whole loopback address
range.
Does the attached patch work for you?
