Actually, that's not quite the whole picture. BackupPC does do dns
name lookup and those calls are not IPv6 compatible.  Once such
instance is in bin/BackupPC_dump line 503. The gethostbyname()
function (at least last time I tried to do IPv6 with BackupPC) does
not support IPv6. This causes BackupPC to try to do an nmblookup. If
your client doesn't have and IPv4 address and does not respond to
nmblookup, BackupPC will fail. However, if you do not use nmblookup,
you can just get rid of lines 496-508,510 and BackupPC will work just
fine.
