I have no problem resolving localhost anywhere else on the box, do you
have any suggestions on finding out if it's a misconfiguration?

I've been having a problem with the pgstat.c localhost change since 7.4,

not traced it back beyond getaddrinfo called in getaddrinfo_all, and
decided the quick fix was to go back and change pgstat to use 127.0.0.1
instead of localhost.
I don't know if the problem is isolated to just me, but I wanted to
suggest that we use a parameter for that, which can be configured in the
postgresql.conf, with a default value if it's not set, set to
localhost.
I think you should first trace down what the problem really is --- is
your system just misconfigured or is there some fundamental issue that
we really ought to answer to?
