**Problem.** `localhost` resolves to `::1` first. benilla dialled every resolved address in order, so a realmd bound only to IPv4 left a Windows login waiting about 2 s on `::1`.
**Reference.** 1.12.1 resolves the realmlist host to one IPv4 address and dials it alone (`WowConnection::ConnectToHost` `0x5b6e40`): `inet_addr` (WSOCK32 ordinal 10), else the first entry of `gethostbyname` (ordinal 52). It never dials IPv6.
**Change.** The dial takes the resolver's first IPv4 address and nothing else. A host with no IPv4 address fails as unresolved.
**Tests.** `localhost` dials `127.0.0.1`. The first IPv4 address of several is dialled. A host that resolves only to IPv6 gives no target.
Smoke: green.
