ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts - problem with ip6 info in /etc/hosts

debian and other distro's these days are including ip6 info in
/etc/hosts.

Currently, HEAD spits the dummy:
2001/10/30 00:19:59| ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts: bad IP address '::1'
2001/10/30 00:19:59| ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts: bad IP address 'fe00::0'
2001/10/30 00:19:59| ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts: bad IP address 'ff00::0'
2001/10/30 00:19:59| ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts: bad IP address 'ff02::1'
2001/10/30 00:19:59| ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts: bad IP address 'ff02::2'
2001/10/30 00:19:59| ipcacheAddEntryFromHosts: bad IP address 'ff02::3'

perhaps part of the IP6 branch could be used to allow this to be parsed
and discarded?
