That sounds reasonable. However, on my box that has an IPv6 address configured
on lo, I get the same result with or without that flag:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
RX packets:48000 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:48000 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
