Buildfarm member caracara has been failing the last few days because of
this:

LOG: could not bind socket for statistics collector: Cannot assign requested address
LOG: disabling statistics collector for lack of working socket

That code hasn't changed recently, AFAIK, so I'm thinking something's
broken in the machine's environment. Any ideas?

Firewall or that ipv6's issues when ::1 for localhost is enabled in
/etc/hosts or that cases when there is an ipv4 address and an ipv6
alias in the same eth0? Was the tcpip_socket variable changed on
caracara's host?

I had dropped an interface on my laptop...

"ifup lo" brought back the local loopback, thereby restoring 127.0.0.1,
so everything should work now. I hope... :-).
