Guys, you're making excuses for the problem.
The problem that triggered this bugus loopback change was commit
e5a4a72d4f88f4389e9340d383ca67031d1b8536. Look at when that one was done.
This is my whole _point_. The networking layer is doing development during
the -rc window. And you guys are making excuses for it. Wake up, guys!
