Bear in mind that using hostnames in for the backend IP values MythTV
is not supported and will cause breakage.  Stuart Morgan added code in
master that detects when Myth is attempting to a local interface, and
uses the loopback, which will avoid exactly the issue being seen here.
 The code will not be backported, but will be present in .25.
