As I at first assumed...So, this is a bug after all. If I put ipaddr = localhost in a home_server definition I get the failed authentication I described in my first note. You can see in proxy.conf configuration lines I included, where ipaddr is set to localhost for all four home_server definitions.
As soon as I changed the ipaddr parameter in all four home_server definitions, and reset the server, I was able to properly authenticate. Nothing else was changed.
Are you sure your name resolution isn't broken so localhost doesn't resolve to 127.0.0.1 but to something else, which then causes authentication to fail? I can substitute localhost for 127.0.0.1 in proxy.conf in 2.1.6 with no effect to authentication.

I just spent the last hour or so attempting to repeat and debug the problem I observed in the free radius client. Then when I couldn't make it fail I switched the 127.0.0.1 IP address for localhost in the proxy.conf file of the server, and it worked as well. So, as you suggested, I must have had a misconfigured system when I attempted to test this before. Thanks for the help and sorry for the false alarm... BTW, I am using version 2.1.6. Thanks for all your hard work. Emmett
