I think this is an argument for either (or both) of:
* Giving up on the idea of listening on a "unique" IP address and instead
using just a "unique" port on 127.0.0.1
* Using the IP address instead of a hosts entry; proxyMap can take
IP addresses as well as hostnames.
I don't like the idea of modifying /etc/hosts. It's too fragile.
