Hang on a sec =E2=80=94 localhost should be [::1], not [::], which is the
equivalent of 0.0.0.0.  My guess is a software bug.  Jails look a little
weird from the inside unless you use a fully virtualized network stack.
The proxy probably doesn't have sufficient error checking around
getpeername() or something like that.
