Hum... i'd say include in the existing packages as much as possibel (and
makes sense). Beyond that we could do several things:
1. create a pkgsrc/inet6 or pkgsrc/ipv6 and put all the packags   
   there. 
2. place the packages besides their v4 cousins, and name them different:
	pkgsrc/foo/bar
	pkgsrc/foo/bar-ipv6

I'd prefer #2, and with the recent additions to bsd.pkg.mk, this shouldn't
be a problem. Maybe other people have other ideas, though? :)
