Which operating systems are shipping with IPv6 enabled by default ?

NetBSD has IPv6 enable by default, Solaris hasn't.

Solaris sort of does - on Solaris 8 and later, you can always use an AF_INET6 socket to connect to an IPv4 address. If you ifconfig an IPv6 interface you can use that as well. The original X.org IPv6 patches came directly from the IPv6 code in the Solaris 9 X distribution which uses AF_INET6 for all IPv4 or IPv6 connections. Unlike Linux & the BSD's, you can't remove AF_INET6 support since we don't provide kernel source for recompiling your own.
