That's a legitimate and worthy goal, but I can't see that this patch
really goes any way towards achieving it.  As far as I can tell, busybox
doesn't currently respect DISTRO_FEATURES anyway, so even if I did add
ipv6 to that variable for micro (which I'm certainly happy to do) this
patch would still cause busybox to be built without it.  

If the file you were patching was a generic one, and the majority of
distros didn't want ipv6, then I would probably have some sympathy with
this patch.  But in this particular case the file you are patching is
entirely micro specific: nobody else will benefit from this change.
