This is true, but in a perfect world, the code for allowing hosts
shouldn't exactly be transport dependent.  As well, this dependency is
not essential to the structure of the code; meaning that there's no
way for a compiler to find this dependency and fix it.  At the moment,
if IPv6 were implemented completely as a transport, any incoming IPv6
connections would fail the allowedHosts checks in a horrible way as
the code tries to cast the connection address to a tcpAddress.  Just a
little thing for someone better at java to code around.
