Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: quagga

Quagga/BGP refuses to bind to the IPv6 address [::0] (accept-any-
incoming IPv6) and insteads binds to the IPv4 address 0.0.0.0, which
prevents Quagga/BGP from processing any requests from IPv6 peers.  This
is due to Quagga's listening code that assumes that Quagga is running on
a dual/seperate stack system, unlike the single-IPv4-mapped-in-IPv6
stack present in Linux.  (http://www.gossamer-
threads.com/lists/quagga/users/17797).  It shouldn't be too hard of a
fix, we just need to change Quagga to bind on [::0] only instead of
0.0.0.0 and [::0]
