Otherwise glibc will count the localhost IPv6 (::1) mapping as resolving to the IPv4 localhost mapping as well, so this: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 foobar localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 192.168.1.2 fooar causes a lookup of 'foobar' (or even just 'ping foobar') to resolve to 127.0.0.1, even though the hostname is *not* listed on the IPv4 localhost line. Apparently glibc just looks for the hostname on any IPv4 or IPv6 localhost line. We need to ensure that even if you don't have a routable IP address for one of [IPv4, IPv6] that the hostname resolves to the localhost address for that IP version, otherwise lots of stuff starts breaking. But for the IP versions that you do have a routable IP address, we want the hostname to map to that IP address too.
