FWIW "127.0.0.1" is hardcoded here:
https://sources.debian.org/src/neon27/0.32.5-1/test/utils.c/#L207

Possibly that could be replaced with "localhost" instead, but I'm not
sure if using 127.0.0.1 is an attempt at hiding that the code is
ipv4-only rather than protocol independent (maybe)...

I tried quickly looking at upstream git history if it could confirm
my suspicion, but the closest I could find was:
https://github.com/notroj/neon/commit/eff6521be537c74511593743bf8665d898e26567
Seems like localhost -> 127.0.0.1 switch was intentional (and done
during SVN days?). Maybe someone digging deeper can find "r1910".
