Subject: Re: virt-manager broken by bind(0) in net-next.

My working hypothesis is:
  1. Something about Evgeniy's patch makes IPV6 (actually IPV4 in IPV6) be
     preferred over plain IPV4.
  2. Vino server (VNC) doesn't think ::ffff::127.0.0.1 is really the localhost
  3. protocol gets screwed up after that.

It is probably reproducible with other services that support IPV6.
