Ah, but is it coded to disallow the entire 127.0.0.0/8 address range that is localhost?
Try some of the other 2^24 (-3) addresses on lo if there is any chance they don't special case the entire range.
2)
Do you have the network bridging available?
Put up a single destination bridge to somewhere in 127.0.0.0/8
Assign an address to the bridge outside of 127.0.0.0/8
Try that.
3)
Do you have the dummy interface available?
Put that up, give it an address outside of 127.0.0.0/8
Try that.
