getaddrinfo returns 2 results with localhost

I am trying to use the function getaddrinfo with a passive socket/listener instead of filling directly the old sockaddr structure. My purpose is to open a socket and bind it to a port. Essentially I am building a server.

I don't know why but getaddrinfo returns 2 results; because of this in the loop below the second time I call bind it exit with an error saying "address already in use". Do you know how to fix this and if it is correct to have it in a loop ?

         struct addrinfo addr;
         memset(&addr,0,sizeof(addrinfo));
         addr.ai_family   = AF_INET;
         addr.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
         addr.ai_protocol = 0;
         addr.ai_flags    = AI_PASSIVE;

         struct addrinfo * rp,* result;
         getaddrinfo( "localhost","59001",&addr,&result );
         for( rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next ){

              int sd = socket( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 );
              if(-1==sd ){ 
              printf( "error creating the socket %m");
              return -1; 
              }             

             if( -1==bind( sd, result->ai_addr, result->ai_addrlen ) ){                 
             printf( "error binding %m")
             return -1;
             }

             if( -1== listen(sd, MAX_BACKLOG ) ){
             std::cerr << "listen didn't work" << std::endl;
             return -1;
             }       
         }

There are a couple of things going on here. For the multiple results from getaddrinfo(), that's because it returns an IPv4 address and a IPv6 address (you have both). As for the "address already in use", you need to set the SO_REUSEADDR option. Put this between your calls to socket() and bind():

int opval = 1;
setsockopt(sd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, &optval, sizeof(optval));
