In this example I used IPv4->IPv4 since it's more likely to be installed on
armel[1] boxes, but the bug happens if the listen address is IPv6 as well:

[~]$ 6tunnel -4 -l ::1 5432 10.2.10.2 5432
6tunnel: unable to resolve host 10.2.10.2


[1]. The breakage was initially caused by a problem on armel.  A good deal
of such machines in the wild have kernels without IPv6, including n900.  I
do happen to use an IPv6-enabled kernel on my phone, but I guess most people
don't.
