I should have said "some people dislike it," but I beleive you're one, or more than one, of them. :-) IMHO, we should enable ipv4-mapped address support by default for RFC compliance. And bind(2) with both of ipv4 and ipv6 should be accepted if IPV6_V6ONLY has been set to ipv6 socket for compatibility with application already, wildly being used on Linux Systems. Note: This is not standarized and not implemented even in USAGI kernels, but I believe it is reasonable and acceptable. I'd like to talk about this issue with itojun, jinmei and others.
