I've changed this to tcp6://, because orte/mca/oob/tcp/oob_tcp.c
contains the following lines:
/* setup the IP address for storage */
tmp = mca_oob.oob_get_addr();
tmp2 = strrchr(tmp, '/') + 1;
tmp3 = strrchr(tmp, ':');
if(NULL == tmp2 || NULL == tmp3) {
The old way (tcp://[IPv6]) would require code to remove
'[' and ']' iff af_family == AF_INET6.
tcp6:// does not need any special treatment.

I'm now using the compiler defines:
#ifdef __linux__
#endif
