<pre>This occurs with me as well. kwin_wayland is unbootable with ipv6.disable=1
kernel option.
In addition to the user above, I would also argue that using ipv6 or ipv4 for
local servers is a bad idea and can be injectible by scripts on a webpage, or
other internet clients.

I would recommend unix sockets instead which are not network-exploitable and
faster as well.
