Nope.
OSX 1.2 (think Rhapsody) had this annoying bug. This was fixed in DP4 (or before).
I just wrote a simple test program on 10.1.1 (Darwin 5.1) to verify that it works correctly.
There is some wierdness with localhost/127.0.0.1 when classic is running, however (although IIRC it's only an issue from within classic).

You shouldn't anymore.
I'm going to build a new version of sysmon and see if I can replicate the problem.
