Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-11630:
-------------------------------------------
I'd rather see that work done than make it too easy too early for user's to
screw this up on real systems. Given that in trunk it is very easy to enable
IPv6 in the shell code, I'm not sure what this patch buys us until that other
code shows up. I'd much rather get rid of this code hack altogether, which
would make trunk the place to do that.

> Currently the bash scripts unconditionally add -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
> While this was needed a while ago. IPV6 on java works much better now and
> there should be a way to allow it to bind dual stack if needed.
