The following code calls getadddrinfo and returns invalid addresses
(IPv6 addresses) when Python has been compiled with IPv6 support and the
system kernel does not support IPv6.
import socket
for res in socket.getaddrinfo("localhost", "80", 0, socket.SOCK_STREAM):
print "%r" % (res,)
(2, 1, 6, '', ('127.0.0.1', 80))
(10, 1, 6, '', ('::1', 80, 0, 0))

Please close this as invalid, the system C library returns the same response... |

My guess is that the C library returns it because /etc/hosts says so. The convention is that /etc/hosts should call ::1 ip6-localhost (and ip6-loopback) instead. |

Martin's hypothesis is confirmed, removing ::1 from /etc/hosts removes the response |
