I had the same problem in 4.3.0. I cannot say if it stiil exists in
RC2, as I compiled it without IPv6. I tried to examine the ebuild,
and the only thing it does if IPv6 is enabled is
if use ipv6
then
echo "#define BuildIPv6 YES" >>
config/cf/host.def
else
echo "#define BuildIPv6 NO" >>
config/cf/host.def
fi
that is in 4.3.99.902. In 4.3.0 it did _exclude_ some patches, but if
you say it's default, then I suppose it wasn't the patches that broke
it. Anyway, in 4.3.99.902 the ipv6 USE flag doesn't have any
influence on the patching process, and I succesfully use XFree86
compiled without this flag on an IPv4-only kernel.
One could try to grep the gentoo patches for PART_NET, but
unfortunately I don't have them at hand.
