Indeed its in tentative state and I figured it was causing the issue.
Getting it out of tentative state (by enabling IPv6 by 'inet6
-ifdisabled' "fixed" the problem.)
But your patch seems like a right way to do it. I'll try it out and report back.

Btw, do you mind opening a phabricator review request so we can get a
closure on this?
