Hi Loic,

I see the same effect, just booted a Lucid EC2 instance and apache does
not listen on ::1

In fact, I can't make it listen on ::1 explicitly with

Listen [::1]:80

Even though that exists on the loopback according to ip addr
list/ifconfig. I get this error:

 ... waiting [Fri Sep 10 22:57:04 2010] [crit] (EAI 9)Address family for 
hostname not supported: alloc_listener: failed to set up sockaddr for ::1
Syntax error on line 9 of /etc/apache2/ports.conf:

But when I've added a routable ipv6 address it works fine!

Marking Confirmed.

Setting Importance to Medium. While ipv6 is not the norm now, We need to
make sure we support IPv6 users/developers/etc. now, and this may signal
something broken deeper down in the system.
