RouteConverter and Mac OS X

[routeconverter]

Well, I found a java topic about local TCP-ports and vista returning an ipv6 localhost address here. He does (needs to do?) "something" on Vista and Linux but not on MacOSX as it is unneccessary (?) there.
Maybe it's rubbish, maybe it's useful. I can't judge it.

I found that one valueable:

Important Note: Although I hate putting an IPv4 address in the code, a hardcoded one no less, a recent Windows Vista update has caused a lookup of "localhost" to return "::1" even if IPv6 isn't enabled on that host. Thus getLoopbackAddress() forces an IPv4 address of 127.0.0.1.

I'll try to replace "localhost" by "127.0.0.1" to avoid that "::1" bug. Thank you!
