 This isn't intuitive at all and should be fixed.

-On systems that "double bind" both IPv6 it's IPv4 equivalent in one call, 
-an "Address already in use" error is currently issued when trying to bind the
-IPv4 address.  For these systems, we need to try and recognise this superflous
-error and supress it (exchanging it for a successful message).

-$ ./nc6 -v -l -p 8765
-nc6: listening on :: (8765) ...
-nc6: bind to source 0.0.0.0 (8765) failed: Address already in use

-It has been observed that when using nc6 to try and listen on ports currently
-used by IPv4 only servers, netcat incorrectly(?) reports that it has
-successfully bound to the IPv4 address.
-
-Unsure what platforms this is a problem on, but on a darwin system running
-apache on port 80:
-
-# ./nc6 -v -l -p 80
-nc6: listening on :: (80) ...
-nc6: listening on 0.0.0.0 (80) ...
-^C
-# ./nc6 -4 -v -l -p 80
-nc6: bind to source 0.0.0.0 (80) failed: Address already in use
-nc6: failed to bind to any local addr/port
