From the group's description on Google Groups:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers
Discuss developing Android applications using the Android SDK. Get
help with troubleshooting apps, advice on implementation, and
strategies for improving your app's speed and user experience.
The kernel is not a part of the SDK, and rebuilding it is not a part of
the process of using the SDK.
Those other lists (esp. porting) has subscribers who routinely rebuild
the kernel, so you'll have a higher chance of getting a good answer.
BTW, the following link:
http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/net/ipv6_guide/index.html#dual
says that Java applications don't need to worry about choosing a
specific IP version, it's automatic - although I don't know if the
browser uses Java for networking.

OK. Thank you.
But i would like to know, what problems are appropriate to post here?

Perhaps the browser always recognizes IPv6 addresses, and tries to use
them?
If IPv6 is disabled in the kernel, trying to use a v6 socket should
fail, and hence you can't open a v6 site. Once kernel support is
enabled, the rest would work automatically.
You might also want to post your question on a more appropriate list:

Hi, everyone~
I have been recently studying on why the Browser in the android OS
does not support accessing IPv6 websites through IPv6 URLs.
At first, I built the source code with "CONFIG_IPV6" not set and tried
IPv6 URLs in the Browser and the Browser could not access IPv6
websites. I then built the source code with "CONFIG_IPV6" set and
tried again, the Browser works!
But i don't get it. I think the source code of the Browser hasn't been
changed, how it can be that the Browser suddenly support accessing
websites through IPv6 URLs...? Is it the new kernel config file
introduce some modules to be included in the final iso image so that
the Browser which utilizes these modules is able to access websites
through IPv6 URLs?
I just need a hint, such as what reads the changed kernel config file
and contributes to the changed behavior of the Browser.apk.
Best wishes and thanks in advance!
