Meanwhile, I found out that the configure check that determines
whether IPv6 support is available or not looks like this:

  dnl --------------------------------------------------
  dnl * test for getaddrinfo as proxy for IPv6 support
  dnl --------------------------------------------------
  AC_CHECK_FUNCS(getaddrinfo)

Apparently I was worried for no reason. :-)

Thanks for responding, Bryan.

Best regards,
Peter
