<warning> <para> This is really a workaround of problems relating
to immaturity of IPv6 support, which improved visibly during the
course of AIX 5.3 releases. It has worked with AIX version 5.3,
but does not represent an elegant solution to the problem. It has
been reported that this workaround is not only unnecessary, but
causes problems on AIX 6.1, where IPv6 support has become more
mature. </para>
