No, and this bug report is bogus, because it is based on a
misconfiguration.

You configured /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only=0 and you tell MPD to
bind to IPv4:6600 first.  The second line will then try to bind to
IPv4 *again*, as your configuration demands.  Your kernel does not
allow binding to the same address twice.

How to solve the problem:

- remove the "0.0.0.0" line as "::" already implies IPv4

OR

- set bindv6only=1
