Ok. That part in Section 4.1 will be changed as below.

When provided with more than one Home Network Information options 
having the different id-types or multiple sub-options for the same id-type, 
the mobile node SHOULD choose the information to use for establishing a 
Mobile IPv6 session according to preference order.

Originally, the reason to define new sub-option for dsmip HA is to couple 
its IPv4 & IPv6 addresses for the same HA with dual-stack. But I cannot
find much advantage for the coupling, and think it would be better 
to follow your suggestion. Then the server also provides the information
for IPv4-only HA.

Sec 3.1.1

               4    A pair of IPv6 and IPv4 addresses of
                    dual-stacked home agent 

   When the Sub-opt-code is set to 4, it MUST contain both of IPv6 and
   IPv4 addresses of the dual-stacked home agent which can serve for
   both Mobile IPv6 and Mobile IPv4.  A 128-bit IPv6 address is followed
   by a 32-bit IPv4 address in this field.

Sec 3.2.1

               3    A pair of IPv6 and IPv4 addresses of
                    dual-stacked home agent 

The same with the above.

Sec 3.1.1

            4    IPv4 home agent address 

   When the Sub-opt-code is set to 4 , it MUST contain the 32-bit IPv4
   address of the home agent which is equipped with IPv4 stack only or
   with dual stack. 

Sec 3.2.1

            3    IPv4 home agent address 

The same with the above.
