>Description:
mount_nfs doesn't fallback to IPv4 operation when IPv6 nfs mount
is not available.
>How-To-Repeat:
Prepare a host with an IPv6 DNS record which is
1) a FreeBSD box running 4.1-STABLE something
2) a NetBSD box which denys IPv6 RPC requests by libwrap
(This can be achieved by disabling DNS reverse lookups or
explicitly writing hosts.{allow,deny}.)
>Fix:
Not provided.
It might be a good idea to have -4/-6 options which explicitly
selects IPv4/IPv6 connections.
