>Description:
For the past year or so cvsup4.freebsd.org (cvsup4.us.freebsd.org) has been listening on IPv6.  Recently it stopped, so connections are failing back to v4.  I know that most cvsup mirrors are not listening on IPv4, but this is a recent change for cvsup4.
>How-To-Repeat:
syr-dhcp-host109:~ ryan$ telnet -6 cvsup4.us.freebsd.org 5999
Trying 2001:4f8:0:2::e...
telnet: connect to address 2001:4f8:0:2::e: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host
syr-dhcp-host109:~ ryan$ 

>Fix:
Turn socat or whatever was being used to provide v6 back on ;)
