That's what I said.  Old versions of fping needed the same source to 
be built with different options ("-DINET6"), leading to two distinct 
binaries.  New versions have one binary that can do both, and can be
called as "fping -6" or as "fping6" (symlinked to "fping", implying -6
from the invocation)

Getting this right in t_client is somewhat nontrivial, as you can't
just always call "fping -6" on all systems, as this will not work
(and assuming "if there is no fping6, just call fping -6" will not
work either, systems had two distinct packages for "fping" and "fping6").

So something along the lines of

- if there is fping
- and there is no fping6
- and "fping -6 ::1" works
- then use the latter for "FPING6", otherwise barf

will be needed.
