Comment (by kallisti5):

I did some digging, netresolv does provide localhost... by parsing the
/etc/hosts like on most platforms :-). There could be edge cases of users
wanting to modify where localhost points so setting it in a static way is
really not ideal. As all the platforms I know of define localhost in some
etc-hosts way, i'm going that route.

Fix on it's way.
