I managed to have access to a machine where the bug does not show up. That machine has a /etc/network/interfaces file containing exactly the "auto lo \\ iface lo inet loopback" lines.

So this seems to be a relevant clue to bug hunting. In which way this file interferes with localhost being brought up? (in other words: how can we consistently fix this issue, without relaying on user-modified config files?)
