Unable to run for minion when minion running on same device as master

[luke-orden]

I am running a proxy minion on the same server as I am running the master.

My proxy config file:

master: localhost
pki_dir: /etc/salt/pki/proxy
cachedir: /var/cache/salt/proxy
multiprocessing: False
state_top: salt://top.sls

I see:

$ isalt

It works fine with --master.

I tried to solve this via #2, can you give it a try to check it if works? Thoughts or suggestions, very welcome! 😉

I have commented on the PR. With the suggested fix it seems to work as expected.
Thanks.
