	USE_INET6 is only for pkgsrc.  since we ship userland in binary form,
	we need to always enable IPv6 for userland (otherwise, users would
	need to recompile the whole userland when he turns on IPv6).

	I'll fix non-IPv6 build anyways.  sorry for the mess.

>Is it common practice to define INET6 etc. unconditionally?

	yes.
