I don't think we should force the majority of pkgsrc users to upgrade
their tools just because we fixed a feature that a minority of them will
use. About the IPv6 and buffer overflow, that's not related AT ALL to this
topic, as it's not part of the pkg_install package.

But if you think it's bearable to force all our users to upgrade their
tools... sure, go ahead.
