I emailed the maintainer for the FreeBSD port but haven't heard back from
them as yet.  For now, I've implemented the work around @
http://erlang.2086793.n4.nabble.com/crash-dump-at-ejabberd-startup-td3044533.html
..
 However, I wouldn't call this a "patch" as the current FreeBSD port is
suppose to recognize a connection from an ip that matches the local ip, as
being a true "Local".

I'll follow up on this post when I hear back from the official port
maintainer.

Best,

Jeff
