Would appreciate some guidance on this.  It seems like a reasonably =
serious regression, so I=E2=80=99m surprised it hasn=E2=80=99t already =
been fixed.

Since all of our code binds a particular library, we were able to work =
around it by overriding the weak referenced socket() with our own =
version that creates the socket and explicitly turns off the V6ONLY =
option, but that doesn=E2=80=99t help with third-party applications.

Thanks,
lew
