--- Comment #8 from Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume at FreeBSD.org> ---
This is not a bug but a feature. RFC 3493 says:

  If the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag is specified, IPv4 addresses shall be
  returned only if an IPv4 address is configured on the local system,
  and IPv6 addresses shall be returned only if an IPv6 address is
  configured on the local system.  The loopback address is not
  considered for this case as valid as a configured address.

I'm curious why you use loopbak address?
