Replying to [comment:6 nickm]:
To reiterate what I said on IRC -- Another IP address can be added to a
loopback interface and it becomes a loopback address no different from
::1. At the very least, Linux supports this. It also possible to bind an
address that is on any other interface and make a loopback connection.
For good measure, I ran the following commands:
{{{
ip addr add ::54:6f72/128 dev lo
ssh -6 -b ::54:6f72 ::1
w # from ssh session
}}}
I verified that "w" showed a login from ::0.84.111.114
I couldn't get an IPv6 hidden service working at all, though -- with or
without LocalOutboundBindAddress set. So I haven't actually tested the
IPv6 case, although the ssh test demonstrates that setting the bind
address does work for IPv6 loopback connections.
