        I should point out that the current batch of changes are focused on

        straightforward and unexciting.


    Sorry, what does this mean. IPv6-only environment with ::1, or no
    loopback mechanism at all?


A system where 127.0.0.1 does not exist (in fact IPv4 is completely
absent), and "localhost" resolves to ::1.

Ok.

A simple but pervasive change to global replace testing code via:
s/"127.0.0.1"/ InetAddress.getLoopbackAddress().getHostAddress()/g

Right. This should be fine, but will likely show up mis-configurations
on some of our systems. I'd be happy to help shake out any issues, once
there is a patch available.
