        This is because I need to provide non-IPv6 build (for 1.4.1, for
        example) and IPv6-ready build (for -current).

        Of course we need to submit necessary changes to the original
        authors, but there'll a delay until it will get merged in.  In some
        cases it will never merged in as some of the authors do not have
        test environment for IPv6 code (qpopper), or in some cases they use
        different API (fetchmail - they use NRL API).
