Looks to be the case. The strange thing is I thought that as well and tested by passing "ipv6.disable=1" to my distribution kernel and it still worked. Then I compiled IPV6 support into my custom kernel and that got it working BUT when I pass "ipv6.disable=1" to my custom kernel it does NOT work. I'm not sure what the difference is there where I can disable it in one kernel and have it work but not the other.
In any case, is this a bug? I don't see why I should have to have IPV6 support compiled in when my ISP only gives me an IPV4 address so I explicitly left it out.
