I just installed apache 2 and was trying to see if port 80 was open by doing
a sockstat -4 but I couldn't see the port so I thought it didn't install
right. So I did a sockstat -6 and noticed port 80 is showing up for IPv6
sockets.
Is this a default feature for Apache 2 on freebsd.
Per default apache 2.x ports use v4 mapped adresses, in other words,
ipv4 connections are handled by ipv6 sockets.

On FreeBSD 5-STABLE:
