Although this application is configured to listen only on IPv4, the problem manifested after I moved this system on a new network port which also has IPv6. I've come across posts complaining about services crashing at startup, but causal attribution was somewhat conflated between 1Gb switch gear and IPv6. Since this PC was on the same 1Gbps switch before and only the addition of IPv6 coincided with this problem, I'd think the bug you mention is a more probable cause.
