Of course you need this. OpenBSD and some other BSD's, per default, don't listen on the v4 address (using ::<ipv4>) when listening on an IPv6 address. This is a good thing. As such you will need to tell apache also to listen on the 'any' address for IPv4 like above. On silly systems like Linux, listening on IPv6 'any' (::) will automatically listen on IPv4 'any', but incoming connections will have an IPv6 socket, with an address of ::a.b.c.d or was it ::ffff:a.b.c.d, although it looks handy for quick program conversion from IPv4 to IPv6 (just replace the AF's) this is of course still very annoying as you can't use those addresses in logging programs, who suddenly need to understand that some IPv6 addresses are actually still IPv4 etc. Fortunately there you can also turn it off using net.ipv6.bindv6only = 1 On *BSD you will have to code properly, using separate IPv4 + IPv6 sockets and thus listen for both.
