Could you elaborate on this a bit more, as on reflection I'm not sure
I understand the flaw here. Could you show the 'ip addr' output and
corresponding hostname resolution results, and say what errno you
are seeing from bind().

This EDESTADDRREQ feels a bit odd to use - "Destination address required"
doesn't make much sense for something that has to be a local address.
