Only if you enable IPv6. ie. you put:

a link-local IPv6 address configured, and lo0 will get the ::1 address applied

That notation is in my rc.conf file. It was put there by sysinstall when
I first installed the system.

So, shouldn't it resolve to something or is it working the way it is
designed too?
