Listening to wrong IP according to log (due to nic alias?)

The log reads: "Now checking whether ORPort A.B.172.47:9001 and DirPort A.B.172.47:9030 are reachable..."

But the torrc has: ORListenAddress A.B.172.50 DirListenAddress A.B.172.50

After tor start it really does listen to A.B.172.50 and not to the ip from the log.

The probable cause for this is the use of a physical eth0 with ip A.B.172.47 and an alias eth0:1 with A.B.172.50.
