I think grep'ing USE_INET6 is good enough to catch "explicitly
IPv6-ready" pkgsrc. Having the list should be quite useful.

I don't have the list of implicitly IPv6-ready pkgsrc.

As soon as 1.4.2 ships, we'll remove them from KAME pkgsrc.
(we try not to force kame/netbsd141 users to go to full
pkgsrc-current land)
