Fails with backtrace:
,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "localhost/0 nodename nor servname provided, or not known")

and
,----
| (make-network-process :name "server" :server t :family 'ipv4 :service t :host "localhost")
`----
fails in the same way.

However, the following works:
,----
| (make-network-process :name "server" :server t :family 'ipv4 :service t :host "127.0.0.1")
`----


`ping localhost' in terminal shows:
,----
