Seems like the HE IPv6 issues has been solved now…  

Anyway, pkgin is stubborn and sticks with IPv6 even with lots of packet loss, 
which makes it unusable then IPv6 connectivity is bad. 

Perhaps it would be a good idea add an option, -4 to force pkgin to use IPv4?
(And automatic fallback to IPv4 would be even nicer…)
