At least on my system (0.21) myth uses a broadcast to locate the HDHR. 
Maybe once it's up it uses the IP address, but at least for the first
detection it uses the 0xFFFFFFFF ID for the HDHR, which I'm assuming is
some sort of "Hey HDHR, Wake up and tell me where you are" call.

You are an adult when you realize that everyone's an idiot sometimes. You
are wise when you include yourself.
