Description

At least with $check_localip = true, this function should IMNSHO return the lo0 interface when you pass 127.0.0.1 or ::1 in $ipaddr. As it is, you get an empty array (and is_ipaddr_configured() returns false, of course). Don't exactly feel like hacking around this in packages.

It's a subject to be discussed but doesn't make sense to change where_is_ipaddr_configured() this way since it uses get_configured_interface_list() that was designed to return only interfaces configured in pfSense GUI and not all interfaces from OS
