[OSX] 'Socket: unable to join multicast group, error: Address already in use(48)' error when using an IP alias

Networking

-

How to reproduce:

1. Create an IP alias
- Use the command '$ sudo ifconfig lo0 alias 127.0.0.2' to create a loopback alias
- More details here: http://osxdaily.com/2009/08/05/how-to-create-an-ip-alias-in-mac-os-x-using-ifconfig/
2. Open any (new) Unity project
- Note the errors thrown in the console
- The errors are harmless and can be avoided by using this command (only for this particular case): '$ sudo ifconfig lo0 -alias 127.0.0.2'

- Reproduced in Version 5.4.0b9 (04b47bfe5580), Version 5.3.3p1 (828971bd30e1), Version 5.2.4f1 (98095704e6fe)
