I think the answer to this is to listen on two sockets. One is the current implementation on listening on the ipv6's idea of "all" interfaces. This may fail if ipv6 is not available. Another socket hould be opened, listening on ipv4's idea of "all" interfaces too. This may also fail if the ipv6 bind was successful *and the bindv6only setting is false*. If both binds fail, this is fatal. If one of them is successful, operations can go on. And I am not sure where this should be implemented. Meybe Net::Server's interface is flexible enough so that no changes would be necessary in munin-node… Now, someone™ has to make some Perl code out of that prose :)
