Hoi.

I'm having a 4.0 RC 1 (and a -current 4.99.31) without IPv6
support, i.e. built with -V MKINET6=no (build.sh). Now I have
packages (like e.g. net/ORBit2) which check for usability of
IPv6 via #ifdef AF_INET6 .

Is this correct for them to do so? I.e. I have to put more
inet6 - related variables into build.sh to make AF_INET6 disappear,
too? Furthermore PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS=-inet6 gets ignored but ok...

Let's take ... gnome-media.

from the configure:


if test $have_getaddrinfo = yes; then
	
	cat >>confdefs.h <<\_ACEOF
	#define ENABLE_IPV6 1 
	_ACEOF

so getaddrinfo == IPv6 ?

Let's take ... net/ORBit2

it just checks #ifdef AF_INET6

Let's take ... net/vino

cat >>confdefs.h <<\_ACEOF

... again : AF_INET6 defined means there's really IPv6 support?

Who's wrong here (besides me, the bad bad bad user who doesn't want ipv6 support) -
the build system or the package checks ?
