We probably still have horrid (read: buggy) IPv6 support, but this particular 
issue might have been fixed in the meantime, because it never popped up again.

 Status: Fixed

I found a problem in nrex chunk:
address.cxx (130):
void Netxx::Address::add_all_addresses (port_type port)
{
    { // new scope just for safety
        SockAddr saddr(AF_INET, port);
        sockaddr_in *sai = reinterpret_cast<sockaddr_in*>(saddr.get_sa());
        sai->sin_addr.s_addr = htons(INADDR_ANY);
        addrs_.push_back(Peer("localhost", port, sai, saddr.get_sa_size()));
    }

    port_ = port;

# ifndef NETXX_NO_INET6
    if (ipv6_) {
        SockAddr saddr(AF_INET6, port);
        sockaddr_in6 *sai6 = reinterpret_cast<sockaddr_in6*>(saddr.get_sa());
        sai6->sin6_addr = in6addr_any;
        addrs_.push_back(Peer("localhost", port, sai6, saddr.get_sa_size()));
    }
# endif
}

There a problem in my build, because use_ipv6 is not false by default. I don't 
realy understand how must work compiler with explicit constructor and default 
parameter:

address.cxx (101):
explicit Address (bool use_ipv6=false);

Today I get analogic BUG with 0.30:

Uh-oh, this bug was supposed to be fixed in 0.26pre2.  Are you certain you 
aren't accidentally use some earlier version for this?  (Not very likely, I 
know.)

If I enter a user-defined address/port via --bind everything works fine.
