Two issues:

- The sample config says that the default bindaddr is 127.0.0.1. From the code it doesn't look like it's the case.

- Why isn't there a separate bindaddr for TLS?

The non-TLS bind address can be a hostname, but the TLS one cannot be, because it uses the built-in option parsing in tcptls.c. I did not address this because I did not want the scope of my changes to be too broad.
