+- If you build with tcpwrappers and try to run the regression tests,
+  your hosts.allow must permit connections from localhost and from
+  "unknown".  This is because some tests are performed via the loopback
+  interface, while others are done with "sshd -i" as a ProxyCommand.  In
+  the latter case, when sshd calls getpeername() on the socket it will
+  fail (because it's not a tcp socket) and will be identified as
+  "unknown", which is then checked against tcpwrappers.
