test: don't assume broadcast traffic is unfiltered
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
parallel/test-dgram-broadcast-multi-process assumes non-local broadcast
traffic is unfiltered, an assumption that fails with, for example, the
default Fedora firewall rules.  Use a loopback interface instead.

Fixes: nodejs#219
PR-URL: nodejs#220
