But on XP the delay is 'intolerable' rather than unnoticeable. :)

A small patch for that is included along a larger IPv4/IPv6 patch I submitted 
today.
I see Richard put it on trunk (see [e506ebb764]) minutes ago.

Especially those of you using Windows XP would help by building from that code 
and see how it goes for them.
It looks good, and does not require anymore to install IPv6 support (command 
'ipv6 install') on Windows XP.  The solution is IPv4/IPv6 agnostic. If at least 
one of both protocols are useable, the software should work nicely.

As I'm responsible for asking for this support and did a fair part of that 
coding, I'll stay alert on issues that would come out, in order to quickly 
help, should it happen.
