boost::asio::ip::address::is_loopback() on mapped ip4 127.0.0.1

Reported by: tmoers Owned by: chris_kohlhoff
Milestone: To Be Determined Component: asio
Version: Boost 1.54.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: ip6, address_v6 Cc:

Description

boost::asio::ip::address_vs::is_loopback() returns false on the address '::ffff:127.0.0.1'. Maybe this is the correct behavior, but it was certainly unexpected to me.

(the ip4 address '127.0.0.1' maps to '::ffff:127.0.0.1').
