 [notice] Opening OR listener on [::]:0
 [notice] OR listener listening on port 38153.
 [notice] Guessed our IP address as 42.42.42.42 (source: 154.35.175.225).

 If my listening "port" is IPv6, the ip address guessed should be the IPv6
 one, if available.

 Practically, if the address family of the listen port should be used as
 the address family of the outgoing socket that detects the local addess.
