I wonder if that is still the case in "5.10" Anyway, does ntpdate set
the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag?  If not, doing so should prevent it from
getting IPv6 answers when there is no IPv6 address configured on the
system running ntpdate.

Whether ntpdate should be enhanced to walk the list I guess would be
an open question.
