I have found the problem: I had switched to wicd for managing my
wireless (I was using a hidden SSID and have not had luck with network
manager). wicd wasn't configuring the loopback (lo) interface. I
switched back to NM, which does configure lo, and all seems well (well,
I haven't tested
I should also add: because in my testing I was alternating among the
old fashioned /etc/network/interfaces, network manager, and wicd, I
had turned off the old fashioned style by simply deleting
/etc/network/interfaces. Network manager still configures lo properly in
that case, but seemingly wicd
