Me too, but all the names point to 127.0.0.1. AFAIK, this doesn't
affect cookies, 'cause they are assigned to the domain name, not IP
addresses. I can only see this useful if you need to run more then one
devserver at the same time and don't want to remember different IPs
for each of them.

I'll go with Russel's advice and see how hard the fix is.

Thanks for comments and Happy New Year :)
