Hi Erwin, thanks for the report.
Could you try if the following patch fixes the problem?

my $res = bind (SOCK, sockaddr_in($port, INADDR_ANY));
close SOCK;
I can't really test it here because the Debian (linux) kernels have
ipv4 compiled in.
PostgreSQL itself should work fine, I'd hope, but please check that
too. There should be some UDP connection open:
$ LC_ALL=C sudo netstat -upn
Active Internet connections (w/o servers)
