No, it's a bug. Finally rose to the top of my list. Fixed in the next release - it should show the IP address. At least, I have fixed one circumstance that could do that; let's hope it's the same as the one you hit. It occurred if there was an error very early on in the connection, typically as a result of host_lookup, and looking up the IP address gave a host name that could not be looked up.
