While testing on netbsd 6.0, ansible setup failed with:

socket.error: illegal IP address string passed to inet_aton
The cause is having aliases on lo like this:
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33184
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
inet alias 127.1.1.1 netmask 0xff000000
So if the address is 'alias', we have to skip it.
