Keep in mind that letting it automagically pick ip version can be
tricky: if the nameserver returns both AAAA and A records for host
lookup, but the client there only talks ipv4, your connect will depend
on the order of the records in dns reply. If A comes first, you'll
connect. If AAAA comes first, you'll fail.

This is particularly nasty with smtp: mail server will just keep
retrying & it'll be a week or two before the message bounces -- even
though recipient's mail server is working perfectly well. (Over ipv4.)
