I cannot find any reference to AF_INET6 in the sources, though I can
find AF_INET.  This means that IPv6 is not supported.

Michael: software does need to support IPv6 in order to use it without
going through a gateway of some kind.  The reason is that nobody's
figured out how to fit 128 bits of address data into the 32 bits
allowed by IPv4.  Your local manual pages can describe how to use IPv6
in software -- the most useful of which is section 4, "ip6".  Contrast
this to section 4, "ip".
