I don't think it accomplishes anything at all to have the same lines
in there twice.  The comment doesn't affect whether the line applies
to IPv4 or IPv6.

ISTM the problem here must be the Windows version of
pg_foreach_ifaddr(), which uses this method to try to get a list of
addresses:

WSAIoctl(sock, SIO_GET_INTERFACE_LIST, 0, 0,
                                         ii, n_ii * sizeof(INTERFACE_INFO),
                                         &length, 0, 0)

Perhaps there's a better method we could be using, but I have no idea
what it is.  A quick Google search didn't turn up any IPv6-related
restrictions on SIO_GET_INTERFACE_LIST.
