    This allows out-of-the-box connectivity	on IPv6-only networks.
    Once caveat is that connections	where the user currently
    expects	no IPv4	connectivity to	terminate the connection and
    retry will no longer do	so until IPv6 also times out, and if
    that network where IPv4	is expected to fail also has an IPv6
    router sending advertisements, the connection will succeed
    instead	of failing.  That can be resolved by setting the
    right bit in the connection's config file; and it's expected
    that the number	of users who expect IPv4 failure on a
    network	with usable IPv6 connectivity is quite small
    compared to the	benefit	of OOB IPv6 connectivity.
