Hm, is that really better than just commenting it out? Particularly
on Windows, where we could imagine someone installing a newer version
of the relevant DLL and then wanting to use IPv6. Seems to me that
leaving the line present but commented out is the right thing, because
it documents how things should look for IPv6.
