[X Servers] OSX 10.3.2 [code=CANT_CONNECT_LOOPBACK]

[Brent Baisley]

I haven't updated to 10.3.2 yet, but I have experienced problems with 
IE using localhost and 127.0.0.1. I forget which combo was the problem, 
but both would work if I was connected to a network, but only one would 
work if I wasn't on a network (i.e. on the train communting). Camino 
and Safari have never exhibited this problem, and honestly, I don't use 
IE anymore except for the occasional display test for my code. So, it 
may not be an issue with the 10.3.2 update.
