I just noticed, that on my recent "6.1-STABLE #4: Thu Jun  8" amd64
system attempts to connect to a bogus port (like 6666) hang instead of
failing with "Connection refused" immediately, as they on other systems.

Using sysctl net.inet.tcp.blackhole=1 ?

Yes, that's what it was...

Got me thinking, though... Should the blackhole setting apply to localhost
(and local IP addresses) at all? It is a security measure -- would be nicer
to reduce its impact on legitimate activity...
