Yes.

Ohh.  I see what you are saying.  By the time RCcanpost is called, we
already know the connection is legitimate.  So if no peer matches, it must
be coming via localconn.

That makes sense.  We did change the entry in incoming.conf slightly
(adding a few other names for the local machine) and that must have
caused this.

Well, it should be acceptable for RCpeerlist to have an entry for
localhost, I think.  So I will leave the " == 0 then return 1" check at
the top of RCcanpost, then.
