Kurchi,
I don't have any problem with the source changes ( they make sense ),
but I don't see why they are necessary.
The listening socket is bound to the wildcard address, so sending to the
local address should work. I guess this is some kind of (default
configuration error/issue). Anyway, your test changes are fine.
Adding the third test to the problem list makes sense ( as you say, it
will require a more involved fix ), but you should create a new separate
bug number for it and add it to the comment in the ProblemList. It may
be a little confusing to see this bug number in the comment when the bug
database will show it as fixed.

Hi,
Some tests in our test repository assume that InetAddress.getLocalHost()
will return 127.0.0.1. However, with
linux systems running Ubuntu 12.04 now returning 127.0.1.1 as localhost,
these tests are failing. I have changed two
of the NIO tests to remove their dependency on
InetAddress.getLocalHost(). A third test has been added to
the ProblemList.txt since the changes required for it are more involved.
