I'm sure it depends on which Solaris version you're running, and
possibly on local configuration issues as well. We should not however
assume that the problem occurs *only* on Solaris. My take on a lot of
the IPv6 funnies we've turned up is that they are kernel/userland
compatibility issues (v6-ready libc on non-v6-ready kernel or vice
versa), and that's surely at least as likely on Linux as Solaris.
The regression test that detects the problem was only put in as of
7.4beta3. I'm not sure how many of our existing port reports were
based on prior betas ...
