I agree with you, and yes windows has the same behavior as BSD
probably because Microsoft stole the entire networking from BSD ;)

Anyhow, in case the address is null it make sense to force the
IPV4 on those platforms (by default APR for windows comes without
IPV6 support, so you need to manually enable that during the build time).

On Windows and BSD one can simulate the same behavior like on Linux
or Solaris by using two connectors with the same port
IPV4 with address="0.0.0.0"
IPV6 with address="::"
(Something JDK is doing)

Anyhow, the problem is not with Tomcat native, but rather the APR
should probably support that transparently.
(It's on my TODO list for APR 2)
