Package: postgrey
   Version: 1.31.-3.2
   Severity: critical

    After secure update of glibc (DSA-2058), postfix can not bind to port 60000 
at 127.0.0.1, by try to bind to port #012 at 127.0.0.1

>From the mail.log of postfix: Binding to TCP port 60000 on host 127.0.0.1#012 

When I invoke netstat with arguments -pan from a root shell prompt it gives 
that there is no process listening at port 60000:

Here is a transcript:
# netstat -pan | grep 60000
# 

When I invoke portgrey with arguments -v --inet=127.0.0.1:60000 from a root 
shell prompt:

#/usr/sbin/postgrey -v --inet=127.0.0.1:60000 

Here is a transcript:

postgrey (type Net::Server::Multiplex) starting! pid(6721)
Binding to TCP port 60000 on host 127.0.0.1 
ERROR: Can't connect to TCP port 60000 on 127.0.0.1
[Cannot assign requested address] at /usr/sbin/postgrey line 745 

I am using Debian GNU/Linux 5.0, kernel 2.6.26-2 and libc6 2.7-18lenny4. 
Postfix 2.5.5-1.1.

This problem is some times repeatable on different platforms.
