 NetBSD enables the inet6 option by default since USE_INET6 is set in
 /usr/share/mk somewhere, and that gets translated to the inet6 option
 (with a deprecation warning) in mk/ somewhere.
 
 Perhaps we should get rid of this automatic translation and just
 enable inet6 by default on all platforms, so we don't get more of this
 kind of bug report in the future?
