Tom Lane answered to that question. The code in question does resolve
"localhost" with getaddrinfo() and then tries to create and bind a UDP
socket to all returned addresses. For some reason "localhost" on your
system resolves to an address that is not available for bind(2).

Since there is no mechanism to control that data is stored contiguously
in the tables, what would that be good for?
