> IPV6 addresses not handles currently in the common library methods. IPV6 can
> return address as "0:0:0:0:0:0:port". Some utility methods such as
> NetUtils#createSocketAddress(), NetUtils#normalizeHostName(),
> NetUtils#getHostNameOfIp() to name a few, do not handle IPV6 address and
> expect address to be of format host:port.
> Until IPV6 is formally supported, I propose disabling IPV6 for junit tests to
> avoid problems seen in HDFS-1891.
