I did have 127.0.0.1 at first, but I changed it for two reasons. One was that I
think 0.0.0.0 was the old pre-4.0 behavior. The second was that I think
127.0.0.1 will only work for IPv4. I'm no expert here, and I'm not even sure
ssh.com 2.4 works with IPv6.

I have no problem with changing this to 127.0.0.1 if the above reasons make no
sense.
