This is because I need to provide non-IPv6 build (for 1.4.1, for
example) and IPv6-ready build (for -current).
Of course we need to submit necessary changes to the original
authors, but there'll a delay until it will get merged in. In some
cases it will never merged in as some of the authors do not have
test environment for IPv6 code (qpopper), or in some cases they use
different API (fetchmail - they use NRL API).
