Comment (by bshen):
Is this the actual desired behavior? I don't think we want to have mixed
IPv4 and IPv6 representation be invalid when unpack_ipv4 is False. Mixed
IPv4 and IPv6 is still valid IPv6. In fact, this would probably break
existing code written by others that depends on this functionality where
the first IPv4 octet is not 0.
Furthermore, it appears that root cause of the inconsistency is not
addressed, but rather a whole class of valid IPv6 addresses is now marked
invalid.
