This is Linux "feature".

On Linux there is no way to listen on both wildcard address and specific addresses.
You have to listen on either on wildcard addresss or several specific addresses.
So on Linux there is no way to limit a host to specific address and nginx emulates
other OSes behaviour. If you want to process one.local on both *:80 and 127.0.0.1:80
you should use this:

server {
listen *:80;
listen 127.0.0.1:80
server_name one.local;
}

server {
listen 127.0.0.1:80
server_name two.local;
}
