Newbie question: Informix SE on Linux

I just installed Informix SE on Redhat Linux 5.1, and created the
$INFORMIXDIR/etc/sqlhosts file that contains one entry:
demo_se seipcpip localhost sqlexec
I set $INFORMIXSERVER to demo_se, and ran the dbaccessdemo7 program
according to the manual, but got the error message:
Creating stores7 database ....
25591: Transport control received an invalid connection address.
Error in line 1Near character position 1
The error message manual says it means there are invalid hostname and
servicename entries in the sqlhosts file. But this is a local
connection, and the DBA manual says hostname and servicename don't
matter for local unnamed pipe connections. What could have gone wrong?
