The fixes look reasonable to me, but I don't have a system that I can remove IPv6
support from to test on, so I don't know if they fix all the problems.

Unfortunately, when originally developing the IPv6 changes I did so on Solaris,
where if you had IPv6 support at compile time, you had it at run time, so I didn't
include fallbacks to AF_INET if AF_INET6 failed, but probably should have for 
systems like Linux without such a guarantee.
