Just looked at the hosts file on my Intrepid server and localhost is
defined twice in there so that, e.g., ping6 localhost will work as
well as ping localhost.

I would flag that up as a bug in Apache. It's clearly not handling the
situation correctly where a name resolves into both an IPv6 address
and an IPv4 address.
