Dear colleagues,

at least rpcbind brokes on parsing hosts.allow file when built with NO_INET6:

Feb 16 13:55:41 ... rpcbind: error: /etc/hosts.allow, line 42: missing option name
Feb 16 13:55:41 ... rpcbind: connect from 127.0.0.1 to getport/addr(mountd): request from unauthorized host

Maybe split default line to simplify commenting second one out?
