RFC2553 does not state this behaviour. in fact many implementations do
not allow to do this.
can you explain better? let's take two sockets, an AF_INET and an
AF_INET6+V6ONLY one. can i bind them on the same port only if i
bind first to 0.0.0.0 and then to ::? or is it also correct to bind
first to :: and then to 0.0.0.0?
RFC2553 is silent about this.
