[Catalyst] test server running off of ipv6?

Thanks for getting back to me -- actually, as usual this turned out to
be one of a number of problems that seem to only pop up when running
on a 64bit os - I dropped back down to 32bit Ubuntu, and the ipv6 is
still compiled, in however everything works fine now.
