Comment #19 on issue 12711 by [email protected]: Unable to resolve and view  
site that using IPv6
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=12711

Bug 21536 may be a duplicate of this bug.  There's a little bit more  
information over
there.

Wan-Teh, in Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard," getaddrinfo's documentation has
improved, and AI_ADDRCONFIG is now properly specified:

                     AI_ADDRCONFIG   If the AI_ADDRCONFIG bit is set, IPv4
                                     addresses shall be returned only if an
                                     IPv4 address is configured on the local
                                     system, and IPv6 addresses shall be
                                     returned only if an IPv6 address is con-
                                     figured on the local system.

Unfortunately, it's not working as advertised.  As comment 18 states, the  
default
situation for Macs is to give each interface a link-local IPv6 address in  
otherwise
non-IPv6 environments.  This is the case even on Leopard.  However, even  
when IPv6
is defeated entirely (System  
Preferences:Network:(interface):Advanced…:TCP/IP, set
Configure IPv6 to Off), getaddrinfo with AI_ADDRCONFIG returns IPv6  
addresses.
