Well, have you considered looking to see if it's right? What do you get
in response to:
$ netstat -rn | grep 127
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 64746 lo0
$
Showing what I get on a 7.0 server.
Unless they've moved things around since 7.0, you probably want to make
sure that you've not messed with the ifconfig_lo0 line in
/etc/defaults/rc.conf.
My apologies if that config stuff has changed in the latest; I don't
have access to the latest right now.
