No, and I'm using only localhost as address, i.e. I am contacting
localhost, and I have listen_addresses = localhost in postgresql.conf.
My name server does not resolve internal names (I'm using LMHOSTS). All
other programs do work with that configuration (i.e. IPv6 uninstalled).
However, I just noticed that when I stop the DNS client (caching)
service, then the problem disappears as well. Strange.
